How to Schedule an Appointment

To schedule an appointment at the Medford office, visit the Oregon DMV website at oregon.gov/odot/dmv and select "Schedule an Appointment." You will need to choose your transaction type — such as renewing a license, obtaining an ID card, or registering a vehicle — and then select available dates and times. The system shows you what is open in the next several weeks.

If you cannot schedule online or prefer to book by phone, call (541) 776-6234 during business hours. Have your driver's license number or ID number ready, along with information about what you need to do. The staff member will confirm your appointment time and tell you what documents to bring.

What to Bring to Your Appointment

The documents you need depend on your transaction. For a driver's license renewal, bring your current license and proof of residency (a utility bill, lease, or bank statement dated within the last 60 days). For a new ID card, bring proof of identity, proof of residency, and proof of Social Security number.

For vehicle registration or title work, bring your vehicle registration, proof of ownership, and proof of residency. If you are registering a vehicle for the first time in Oregon, you will also need the manufacturer's certificate of origin or a title from your previous state. The DMV website lists full requirements by transaction type before you book your appointment.

Wait Times at the Medford Location

Because appointments are required, you typically will not wait more than 15 to 30 minutes past your scheduled time. Arrival 10 to 15 minutes early allows staff to verify your documents and get you into the queue on time. If you arrive significantly late, the office may cancel your appointment and you will need to reschedule.

Wait times can be longer during peak seasons — typically late summer and early fall when school starts and people renew licenses before travel. Scheduling your appointment well in advance during these months reduces the chance of a long delay.

Services Available at Medford

The Medford office handles driver's license renewals, replacements, and new applications. It also issues Oregon ID cards, processes vehicle registration and title transactions, and handles commercial driver's license (CDL) services. Not all services are available at every location, so confirm that your specific transaction can be completed in Medford before you schedule.

Some transactions — such as certain commercial vehicle registrations or specialized permits — may need to be handled at the Salem headquarters office instead. The appointment system will tell you if your transaction must be done elsewhere, or you can call (541) 776-6234 to ask.

Holidays and Closures

The Medford DMV is closed on all state holidays, including New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. It is also closed on the day after Thanksgiving. The office may close for staff training or system maintenance on short notice, particularly in January and July.

Before you travel to your appointment, check the Oregon DMV website or call (541) 776-6234 to confirm the office is open. If a holiday or closure affects your appointment, you will receive a notification and can reschedule through the online system or by phone.
