I have to hand it to this office . They are Incredibly efficient. Just do your part and fill out all your forms and bring necessary documents . Took me 5 mins to transfer license to NY state .

Heather Li

Cleanest, most efficient DMV I've ever been to with very friendly staff ! Book an appointment online and you won't have to wait at all

This location is definitely the greatest, the wait is long but the staff is friendly and they have good music . Make sure you go online and check what kind of documents you need!

Mark Kupasrimonkol

Make an online reservation and fast track the line !! Also listen for your number instead of watching the board, the first letter may not match up. It's not bad if you're prepared.

Jessica Lee

Make sure you go online to make a reservation first and print out a checklist of items you need to bring before coming— it’ll save you a lot of time. I was in and out in 30 min.

Michelle C

You can make an appointment online and they will process you through very quickly. I came early with all my documents ready to go and was seen early. It's also very clean .

In by 5:30, out by 6:15 on a Monday for a name change. Mr. Allen is nice and friendly by the ID station. Don't like you picture? Come back within 6 months to retake it at no charge.

Ben Mackey

Wow. Applied for a Learner's Permit. Was in an out in 25 minutes without an appointment.

Jeff Solomon

All things considered, they have a good queuing system and they move you along pretty quick

Ferit Kan

Super fast/ very helpful staff . For Real ID you will need your Social Security Card or a W-2 with your full SSN on it.

John A

DMV had been the butt of many jokes as a nightmare. Recommend: this location, the people, the music (yes music ) make the wait easier.

Desmond Foo

Book an appointment online before you visit for best results.

Kimmie Ohh

Very quick service here. Employees are very friendly too! Make sure you have an appointment!

Ralph Z

Renewed my license and it was superbly fast. Although they sent me to another dmv office which was a few blocks away, I was in and out under 20 MINUTES!!

Larry

If you need a snack while waiting, there is a Dunkin' Donuts/Baskin Robbins located next door.

Michael Fox-Rabinovitz

Super modern and efficient office , solid service, pleasant waiting area. Pleasantly surprised...

Harumi U

I renewed my license in less than 15min from the moment I walked through the building door. Airy and clean . Wow

Best DMV experience ever took the permit test had forms checked and paid and out the door in 40 minutes !

Heather Beck

Staff are nice, friendly , and informed, but in my experience even with an appointment it can take hours

Jonathan L.

Beware if your ticket starts with a "G", the male voice will announce it correctly when called, but the video screen would say a different letter but with correct numbers.

Sapana Kulkarni

Make an appointment-- I was in and out in minutes.

Emil Rensing

Make an appointment online before you trek here...

William Huba

Really good waits. Top lines in all of midtown.

Larry

When you make an online appointment, book at least a week in advance!

Brooke Cerda Guzmān

#TransWoman friendly ( #GirlsLikeUs ) No clerk needed. Renew my NS State ID by scanning it at their ATM ■ It literally took ONE MINUTE

Eric Leebow

The wait was long to get a license , and on top of that you need 6 points of documents such as a birth certificate, passport, cards, lease, etc. Don’t recommend the elevator , got stuck in it...

Karen

Lines are moving quick for once, due to appointments only.

Brandi Jacobi

Go early you get out early

Emily P. ????

Reserve 2 hours to exchange license from another state . Arrived@8:40. Got seen@9:15 & was told to wait to pay (your queue restarts again). Now 11. expected a reservation would expedite process..lies!

J Crowley

I think I'm going to die here.

Eddie Elizondo

Extremely efficient. With an appointment and all my docs ready I was out in 15 minutes.

Gordon Zheng

This new DMV office is actually pretty nice! Looks newly renovated, air conditioned . Not very crowded on a Tuesday afternoon.

Jackie Napalan

Make an appointment. This DMV is surprisingly fast. Got in and out of here for a state ID in less than 20 minutes.

Olivia Chang

If you strictly need license replacement or renewal, go to License Express on 30th Street instead. Will save you so much time.

Sara ????⚔????

Fill out your forms ahead of time. And bring a book .

P. D.

Never pleasant, but an early am reservation makes it smoother.

Marjorie D

The nicest, and relatively most efficient DMV , I've been to.

Diego Torres

Make an online appointment to avoid waiting. I did mine and it was fast.

Jacul

Be aware of the grumpy employees. Especially the short haired lady. Apparently she’s having a bad day. Or week. Or entire month. Any way don’t let that ruin your day.

Trae F

Surprisingly organized and efficient.

Jen Leo

Most efficient DMV I've ever visited. In and out in 15 minutes.

Ilie Kim

It’s actually pretty efficient. At least during COVID.

Daniel Shaw

Seriously. Make an appointment. In and out in 15.

Marie La Rue

Crowded , a total zoo . Save yourself a headache and make a reservation online prior to visiting to drastically reduce waiting and processing time. Avoid on Fridays.

Andrew Yung

Wow. Most pleasant experience I've ever had at a DMV. Shit's like the Jet Blue lounge .

Mickey Scherrer

First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait.

Ljubica

Could it be that I came, took a written test, took a photo and renewed my license all in 40 minutes? I must be in a parallel universe !

James John (Jay) Cudney IV

Inflexible and bureaucratic. Send you to wrong lines and waste lots of time.

Bubblez Sinclair
