The Basics of Address Change in Vermont
You should know that you are required by law to let the Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles know about any change to your address within 30 days of the address change. Additionally, you have to change the address on your driver’s license, vehicle records, and non-driver ID with the Vermont DMV within 30 days. You must update your vehicle registration documents separately from your license records.
It is best if you use the same address on all of your transactions, documents, and applications. Some people might think that the U.S. Postal Service notifies the Vermont DMV when you change your address. However, this is not actually the case. You are required to report your address change to the Vermont DMV yourself. On a related note, you are also required to report your address change to the U.S. Postal Service yourself, as well.
