Driver's license services available to Maumelle residents

Arkansas allows you to renew your driver's license online if your license is not expired and you have no medical restrictions. You can renew up to one year before your expiration date. The online renewal process takes about 15 minutes and costs less than an in-person renewal. Your new license will be mailed to you within 7 to 10 business days.

If your license has already expired, you cannot renew online — you must visit the Pulaski County office in person or renew by mail. A mail renewal takes longer but avoids the drive from Maumelle. You will need to submit your current license, a completed process form, and payment by check or money order.

If you need a duplicate license, a name change, or a corrected address, you must visit the office in person. The Pulaski County Driver Services office is the only location that can process these requests for Maumelle residents.

Vehicle registration and title services in Pulaski County

Vehicle registration and title work must be handled through the Pulaski County office. You cannot complete these transactions online in Arkansas. You will need to bring your vehicle's current registration, proof of ownership, proof of insurance, and a completed process form.

If you are registering a vehicle for the first time in Arkansas after moving to Maumelle, bring your out-of-state title or proof of ownership, a bill of sale if applicable, and proof of a safety inspection completed within the last 30 days. The office will issue your Arkansas title and registration on the same visit.

Title transfers — when you buy or sell a vehicle — also require an in-person visit. Both the buyer and seller must sign the title in front of a notary or DMV staff. Bring the signed title, proof of insurance, and the bill of sale to the Pulaski County office.

The Pulaski County Driver Services office address and hours

Documents you will need for a Maumelle DMV visit

The documents required depend on your transaction. For a driver's license renewal, bring your current license, proof of residency (a utility bill or lease with your Maumelle address), and your Social Security number. If you are changing your address, bring the same documents plus proof of your new address.

For vehicle registration, bring your current registration, proof of insurance, proof of ownership, and a completed process. If your vehicle has a lien, bring proof of the lien holder's information. For a title transfer, both parties must bring a signed title, proof of insurance, and identification.

Proof of residency for a Maumelle address can be a utility bill, lease agreement, mortgage statement, or government mail dated within the last 60 days. A driver's license with your old address is not sufficient proof of your current address.

Scam alerts and safety information

Do not pay for DMV services through third-party websites or apps that claim to speed up your renewal or registration. The only official way to renew your Arkansas driver's license online is through the state's own website. Scammers often charge extra fees and may steal your personal information.

The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration will never contact you by phone or email asking you to verify your license or registration information. If someone claiming to be from the DMV calls you, hang up and call the Pulaski County office directly using the number on the state website.

Be cautious of services that offer to handle your DMV visit for you in exchange for a fee. While some document preparation services are legitimate, many overcharge for straightforward tasks you can do yourself. Always verify that any service you use is licensed and has a physical address in Arkansas.

Alternatives to visiting the office in person

If you live in Maumelle and want to avoid the drive to Little Rock, check whether your transaction can be completed by mail. Driver's license renewals, duplicate licenses, and address changes can sometimes be handled through the mail, though processing takes longer than an online renewal or office visit.

Some vehicle-related services cannot be mailed — title transfers and new registrations require an in-person visit because signatures must be witnessed. However, if you are straightforward renewing your registration and your vehicle passed inspection, you may be able to renew by mail or online depending on your situation.

Contact the Pulaski County office to ask whether your specific transaction can be completed remotely. Explaining your situation to staff may reveal options that are not obvious from the website.
