What Are the Basics?
If you are moving into or out of Nevada, you do need to let the Department of Motor Vehicles know. The state does not accept any address change by email, so you will need to complete the address chance online through your MyDMV account or in person at a local DMV.
You have only 30 days to let the DMV know that you have moved, so it’s important to start this process as soon as you get to your new home.
