Posted — Updated
The DMV booth and Mobile RV will provide services from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday. The booth will be located between the J.S. Dorton Arena and the Jim Graham Building.
The DMV RV will offer driver license services for fairgoers to renew their licenses or ID cards, order duplicates, update addresses or obtain their N.C. Real ID.
Real ID is a new form of identification that can be used to board flights, enter military bases, federal facilities and nuclear power plants. Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, anyone traveling without a Real ID or passport will be asked to provide an additional form of identification.
To obtain a Real ID license or ID card, residents must bring the following verification documents:
- Certified birth certificate or unexpired U.S. Passport
- Social Security card, W-2 or 1099 tax form with full name and number
- Driver license, vehicle registration card, voter registration card, cable bill, utility bill or bank statement
- Certified marriage license or divorce decree (only needed if there has been a legal name change)
Driver licenses and ID cards are issued every eight years through age 65 and are priced at $5 per year. People over 65 are issued licenses and IDs for five years. Real ID cards for children can also be ordered for $13.
DMV staff will be available every day of the fair to answer questions about career opportunities, driver licenses, Real IDs, vehicle registrations, titles, vehicle theft and identity fraud. The staff will also discuss services that can be handled online without visiting an N.C. DMV office.
Fairgoers will also be able to pick up handbooks for motorcycle, commercial truck driving and state maps.
