Lebanon DMV Hours and Location

The Lebanon Driver Services office is located at 10 Kilton Road in Lebanon, New Hampshire. The office is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and closed on weekends and state holidays. There is no Saturday or evening service at this location.

This is a full-service New Hampshire DMV office, meaning you can handle most driver license, vehicle registration, and title transactions here.

Calling ahead to confirm your specific transaction is available on the day you plan to visit will save you a trip.

Which Services Need an Appointment

New Hampshire requires appointments for certain transactions at the Lebanon office. These include written driving tests, road tests, and some commercial driver license (CDL) services. You can book an appointment through the New Hampshire DMV website or by calling the Lebanon office directly at (603) 643-2222.

Walk-in services at Lebanon typically include vehicle registration renewals, title transfers, address changes on your license, and replacement documents. However, the office may close to walk-ins during peak times or if staff are handling appointments. Calling before you go ensures the service you need is available without an appointment that day.

Typical Wait Times and Best Times to Visit

Wait times at the Lebanon office range from 15 minutes to over an hour depending on the day and time. Monday mornings and mid-week afternoons (Tuesday through Thursday, 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.) tend to have the shortest lines. Friday afternoons and the first Monday of each month are typically the busiest times.

If you are renewing a registration or handling a straightforward transaction, arriving right when the office opens at 8:00 a.m. usually means you will be served within 20 minutes. If you must visit on a Friday or early in the month, plan for a longer wait and bring something to do while you are in line.

What to Bring to the Lebanon Office

The documents you need depend on your transaction. For a driver license renewal, bring your current license, proof of residency (a utility bill or lease dated within 60 days), and proof of Social Security number. For vehicle registration, bring your current registration, proof of insurance, and the vehicle's title if you are transferring ownership.

New Hampshire requires proof of identity and residency for most transactions. A passport, military ID, or state ID counts as identity proof. For residency, an electric bill, water bill, lease, or mortgage statement works. Bring originals or certified copies — photocopies are not accepted for most transactions.

Parking and Accessibility

The Lebanon office has a parking lot with accessible spaces near the entrance. The building is wheelchair accessible, with accessible restrooms inside. If you have mobility concerns or need other accommodations, call ahead at (603) 643-2222 to let staff know you are coming.

The office staff can direct you to the right window or counter for your transaction and may be able to arrange for you to wait in a more comfortable area if you need to sit while you wait for your turn.

If You Cannot Visit During Regular Hours

The Lebanon office does not offer evening or weekend hours. If you cannot visit Monday through Friday during business hours, you have two options: request an appointment at a different time (some offices can accommodate early morning or late afternoon appointments on request), or visit a different New Hampshire DMV location if one is closer to your schedule.

You can also handle some transactions online through the New Hampshire DMV website, including vehicle registration renewals, address changes, and ordering replacement documents. Online transactions typically take three to five business days to process and are available 24 hours a day.

Frequently Asked Questions
