Clips From the Clerk
Motor Vehicle Transactions
The Colorado DMV is completing a required, statewide system upgrade the week of February 16, 2026, to modernize driver and vehicle services. This upgrade will modernize online services and improve security, accessibility, and overall customer experience.
Online and in-person DMV services and MV Express kiosks will be temporarily unavailable during this upgrade.
While we have done our best to notify the community of the closures so that they can plan appropriately, we expect some residents will find themselves frustrated when we are closed. As with any major tech upgrade, there are several unknowns that could lead to delays or service changes in the week or two following the upgrade. The upgraded operations are fully in the hands of Department of Revenue staff and not under our control; however, we want this experience to be as seamless as possible for the public.
A major part of the upgrade will be the launch of a new customer portal. I encourage each of you to sign up for the portal yourself once it is available. It will be the new interface for drivers statewide to access information about their license and vehicles, manage their account, and pay for services. This new portal is the most significant change for customers, and an important part of the DMV's efforts to modernize and increase security.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide in sharing closure dates and encouraging other community members to set up their accounts in the portal!
