LICENSES & PERMITS
Vehicle Registration
If you are a new resident of the state of Texas, to register your vehicle you must pay a registration fee, a new resident tax, and a transfer fee. Before registering your vehicle, you must have it inspected at a state-approved Safety Inspection Station. After your vehicle has passed inspection, bring the completed inspection form, proof of liability insurance, your out-of-state driver's license and your title or out-of-state registration to the Waco Regional Service Center. If your liability insurance is out-of-state, bring your declaration page from the vehicle insurance policy. If your vehicle is leased, bring the lease agreement or another document that shows that sales tax has already been collected. If you do not have a Texas driver's license, you will need to pay your fees in cash; checks will not be accepted.

Driver's License
Texas state law requires that you transfer your out-of-state driver's license to a Texas license within 30 days of your arrival. Prior to obtaining your new license, your vehicle must have passed a vehicle safety inspection, and it must be registered (see Vehicle Registration above). Bring proof of registration, your valid out-of-state driver's license, and your Social Security card with you. For more information call 512.424.2600 or visit dps.texas.gov/DriverLicense/
