How to Submit Your Application
Take the vehicle, your completed application, supporting materials and payment to a regular or fullservice
DMV office.
Make checks or money orders payable to “Oregon DMV."
Note: Due to the additional costs of associated merchant fees, DMV offices only accept cash and checks
and do not accept credit or debit cards; however many office locations have ATMs available.

Titles are mailed to applicants about three to five weeks after DMV receives the necessary paperwork.
