Vehicle Registration Window – What You Need to Know Before You Go
Storey County offers a local Vehicle Registration Window at the Courthouse through a contracted service with the Nevada DMV. Below, in our FAQ, you will find key information to help you understand how the service works and who can use it.
- The Storey County Clerk/Treasurer's Office offers limited Title and Vehicle Registration services as a courtesy by the Nevada DMV and is for STOREY COUNTY RESIDENTS ONLY. We know this may cause confusion, especially for residents in nearby areas. We appreciate your understanding as we keep this service focused on our community that pays for and depends on it.
- Individuals should come prepared with all necessary paperwork and supporting documents to avoid being turned away. Each customer is limited to a maximum of three transactions per visit. For example, a Title, a Registration, and a Renewal are each a single transaction.
- The Storey County Clerk/Treasurer’s Office accepts credit and debit cards only if they are in the person's name for payment on DMV transactions.
- We are a walk-in only office, and our occupancy is limited. Title and vehicle registration customers are asked to take a number and wait in the lobby until it is their turn. Please do not call our office with general DMV questions.
- As a reminder, the Storey County Clerk/Treasurer's Office does NOT provide any services relating to Nevada identifications/driver’s licenses or any insurance sanctions/suspensions. To obtain record printouts and driver's licenses or to take driver courses and tests, you must visit a full-service Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) office in neighboring Carson City or Reno.
- For information about titling and registering Off-Highway Vehicles (OHVs), please visit the Nevada Commission of Off-Highway Vehicles: Nevada OHV.
For more information about the Department of Motor Vehicles’ full-service offices and available online services, visit the Nevada DMV.
Thank You for Your Understanding!
