The N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles has temporarily opened a driver license office in Manteo to provide continued service to Outer Banks residents while the Nags Head office undergoes maintenance.
The temporary office is located in the old College of the Albemarle – Dare County campus at 132 Russell Twiford Rd. and will offer express services on a walk-in basis.
That includes renewals and issuing of REAL IDs.
No driving test services will be available at the temporary location.
Operating hours for the temporary office are as follows:
- Thursday, Dec. 18: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Friday, Dec. 19: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Monday, Dec. 22: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Tuesday, Dec. 23: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
All NCDMV offices statewide will be closed Wednesday, Dec. 24, through Friday, Dec. 26, in observance of the Christmas holiday.
The Nags Head Driver License office at 2808 S. Croatan Highway (U.S. Hwy. 158) is scheduled to reopen on Monday, Dec. 29.
“This temporary solution allows us to maintain service in the area during the Nags Head office closure,” said Commissioner Paul Tine. “Thanks to the College of the Albemarle for its partnership and DMV staff for their dedication and hard work in quickly establishing this temporary location.”
Many driver license services, including renewals and duplicates, are also available online at NCDMV.gov.
