Where to Find the Pembroke Pines DMV Office

The Florida DMV office in Pembroke Pines is located at 10901 Pines Boulevard, Pembroke Pines, FL 33026. This is the main DMV service center for residents in western Broward County. The office handles driver's license renewals, replacements, and address changes, along with vehicle registration and title services.

Pembroke Pines sits west of Fort Lauderdale, roughly 20 miles inland from the coast. If you live in Weston, Davie, or the western parts of Broward County, this office is typically closer than the downtown Fort Lauderdale location. Parking is available in the lot adjacent to the building.

Hours of Operation and When to Visit

The Pembroke Pines DMV is open Monday through Friday, 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday from 8:15 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. The office closes on Sundays and state holidays. Saturday hours are often the busiest time, so if you have flexibility, a weekday morning visit typically means shorter wait times.

Florida DMV offices do not take appointments for most services. You arrive, take a number, and wait your turn. The wait time varies by day and time of day — early mornings on Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually quieter than late afternoons or Fridays. The office does not publish real-time wait estimates, so you cannot check the line length before you go.

What Services Are Available at This Location

The Pembroke Pines office handles the full range of driver and vehicle services. For driver's licenses, you can renew an expiring license, replace a lost or stolen license, change your address, update your name after marriage or legal change, or obtain a duplicate. You can also renew or replace a vehicle registration, explore for a new title, add or remove a name from a title, and handle lien-related paperwork.

The office does not issue commercial driver's licenses (CDL) or handle CDL testing — those services are available only at select DMV locations across Florida. If you need a CDL, you will need to visit a different office. The Pembroke Pines location also does not conduct road tests for driver's license exams; those are scheduled separately through the DMV's testing system.

Documents to Bring for Common Transactions

For a driver's license renewal, bring your current license or ID, proof of residence (utility bill, lease, or mortgage statement dated within 90 days), and your Social Security number. If your address has changed, bring the proof of residence showing your new address.

For a vehicle registration renewal, bring your current registration card, proof of insurance, and payment. If you are renewing online or by mail instead, you do not need to visit the office — Florida allows registration renewal through the DMV website or by mail for most vehicles.

For a title transfer or new title, bring the current title (if you have it), a bill of sale or proof of purchase, proof of insurance, and proof of residence. If the vehicle has a lien, bring the lien holder's information as well.

Nearby DMV Offices in Broward County

If the Pembroke Pines office has a long wait or you are closer to another location, Broward County has several other DMV offices. The Deerfield Beach DMV is about 15 miles east at 1300 East Hillsboro Boulevard and serves the central and northern coastal areas. The Plantation DMV is roughly 10 miles south at 300 North University Drive and is often less crowded than Pembroke Pines during peak hours.

The Fort Lauderdale DMV downtown is the largest office in the county but also typically has the longest waits. If you are in western Broward and the Pembroke Pines office is busy, Plantation or Deerfield Beach may be worth the short drive. All three offices handle the same services and accept the same documents.

How to Renew Your License or Registration Without Visiting

Florida allows you to renew your driver's license or vehicle registration online or by mail without going to the DMV office, which can save you time if you are not making other changes. Driver's license renewals are available online through the Florida DMV website if your license is not expired and you have no address changes or name changes to make.

Vehicle registration renewals can be completed online, by mail, or through an authorized tax collector's office in your county. Broward County tax collector offices are located throughout the county and often have shorter waits than the DMV. If you renew by mail or online, you will receive your new registration card and sticker by mail within 7 to 10 business days.
