All Colorado title and registration services will be unavailable August 1st – 5th.
The temporary suspension of these services is to allow for technical upgrades to the DMV computer system, which will improve the customer and employee experience in offices and online.
Online registration renewal and kiosk registration renewal in participating counties will remain available August 1st – 5th.
Colorado driver license services, bot in-office and online, will also be unavailable August 2nd-3rd. State driver license offices will be closed during this time.
CDOT said the closure will allow the state of Colorado to replace the Colorado State Titling and Registration System (CSTARS), originally installed between 1983 and 1986, with a new system, Colorado DRIVES, which will allow for better county-to-county integration, faster transaction processing and additional online services. This system was successfully implemented for driver services on February 21, 2017.
New online services will include:
- Improved online vehicle registration renewal
- Out of state emissions extension
- Emissions waiver application
- Generate prior receipts
- Duplicate registration receipt request
- 2 percent rental upload spreadsheet fee estimator
- Document uploading
- Personalized plate request
- Change of address
- New registration
Individuals whose driver license, identification card or motor vehicle registration expires in July or August 2018 are encouraged to renew early.
