Which offices do what

MVD’s location list covers MVD offices, commercial driver license (CDL) test tracks, third-party offices, training schools and ports of entry. Not each office offers each service:

  • Motorcycle skills tests are at 13 offices
  • CDL skills tests are at CDL offices and test tracks, such as Goodyear
  • Some offices give no road tests, such as Clifton (open Thursdays) and the TeleMVD offices in Colorado City and Fredonia
  • Third-party offices handle driver license services too

Weather can affect road, motorcycle and CDL skills testing.

Tips for a faster visit

The manual suggests you:

  • Check AZ MVD Now first: your errand may be one you can do online
  • Avoid the first two and last two days of the month, and the day after a holiday
  • Bring your out-of-state license and the identification you need
  • Have your vehicle identification number (VIN) handy for vehicle errands
  • Pay by credit card, cashier’s check or money order as well as cash, for most fees
