Visiting a Wyoming Driver Services office: appointments, what to bring and what to expect

Who handles licenses, titles and plates in Wyoming, what you can do online through oneWYO instead of visiting, how to book an office appointment or driving test, and which documents and payment to bring.

Guide · Wyoming · Appointments · updated October 29, 2026

In Wyoming, driver licenses, permits and ID cards are issued by the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) through its Driver Services program, at local driver exam offices (also called exam stations). Vehicles work differently: plates and registration come from your county treasurer, and titles from your county clerk. This guide covers what you can do without going in, how to book a visit, and what to bring so you only have to go once.

Who handles what

• WYDOT Driver Services tests drivers and issues all classes of driver licenses, commercial licenses, learner permits, graduated licenses and ID cards. It also keeps driving records.
• County treasurer offices issue standard license plates and vehicle registrations, in the county seat of the county where you live.
• County clerk offices process Wyoming titles and lien filings, also in the county seat of your county.

WYDOT's own Driver Services page says that for titles and vehicle registration you should call your local county treasurer's office. The vehicle side is covered in the Wyoming vehicle registration and title guide. For Driver Services offices near you, see the Wyoming office list on this site.

Check whether you need to visit at all

WYDOT's online portal for Driver Services is oneWYO. WYDOT says you can use it to:

• Renew your driver license or get a duplicate
• Schedule an appointment in an office
• Update your address
• Get your driving record
• Order a replacement disabled placard
• Upload a medical or vision evaluation form

To use oneWYO, you sign in with a Login.gov account (you are prompted to create one if you do not have one). You then connect your Wyoming Driver Services record to your oneWYO account.

Some tasks still need a visit. You must appear in person to apply for a first Wyoming license or to renew an expired one, although you can start the process on oneWYO. You must also renew in person at least once every 10 years. The details are in the Wyoming driver license and ID card guide.

Appointments and driving tests

You can schedule an office appointment through oneWYO. WYDOT says office hours and availability vary by location and by day, and it points to its locations page for each office's details.

For driving skills tests, WYDOT says many exam stations may require you to schedule in advance. You can book through oneWYO or by calling your local office. The same applies to motorcycle skills tests. Motorcycle tests are not held if it is raining or snowing, or if the course is wet or icy.

Senior priority hours: the Cheyenne Driver Services office gives priority service to seniors every other Wednesday from 8 to 10 a.m. Other customers can still be served then. WYDOT publishes a calendar of the dates. If your office does not offer senior hours and you need special arrangements, contact that office.

What to bring

WYDOT's document checklist for U.S. citizens applies to licenses, permits and ID cards. You need these documents if you have not already presented them to Driver Services:

1. Proof of legal presence (one), such as a state-certified birth certificate (not a hospital certificate), a valid U.S. passport or passport card, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad, or a certificate of citizenship or naturalization. These must be certified originals or copies certified by the issuing agency. Photocopies, notarized copies and online printouts are not accepted.
2. Proof of identity (one), such as a U.S. state driver license or ID card, a certified birth certificate, a passport, or another government-issued ID.
3. Proof of name change, if your documents do not show your current full name. A new name must be changed with Social Security first.
4. Proof of residency (two) showing your name and physical home address (not a P.O. box). The documents can be no more than 45 days old and cannot come from the same source. Examples include a utility bill, a lease, a bank statement and a pay stub.
5. Proof of Social Security number. WYDOT says this is recommended but not required, but your number is required on the application.

WYDOT has a separate checklist for non-U.S. citizens on its document requirements page. Honorably discharged veterans can bring a long-form DD-214 to have the veteran designation added.

Forms to fill in beforehand

• Wyoming Driver License / Identification Card Application: used for a new or renewed license, commercial license, commercial learner permit or ID card. It is on WYDOT's Applications page.
• Medical or vision evaluation forms: if you have medical or vision problems, you may be asked to have your doctor complete one before a license is issued.

Paying

WYDOT's FAQ says it accepts checks, money orders and cash. Credit and debit cards are accepted at some exam stations, but an extra fee is charged. Typical fees include:

• $45 for a Class C license or permit
• $35 to renew a Class C license or permit
• $25 for a duplicate license
• $10 for an ID card

At the counter

When you apply for a license, you are photographed and complete a vision screening. New residents surrender their out-of-state license. Depending on your situation, you may also take a written test, a driving skills test or both. WYDOT says that if you fail a written test, you can take the same test only twice in one day. Bring your own vehicle for a skills test. It must be registered, insured, equipped with seat belts and in good working order.

Your card is not handed to you at the counter. WYDOT says to expect it 4 to 6 weeks from the date of issuance. If you need it sent to a different address, complete a Forwarding Request form.

Language and reading help

WYDOT says its tests are given only in English, and its manuals are printed only in English. If you cannot speak English, you may use an interpreter for non-commercial written tests. An interpreter is also allowed on a driving skills test, but not for a commercial skills test. If you have trouble reading, the automated testing system can read the questions aloud through a phone system.

For questions, Driver Services can be reached at 307-777-4800.
