What is the DMV in Kansas?
Unlike some states that have a dedicated "Department of Motor Vehicles" (DMV), Kansas handles driver-related services through the Kansas Department of Revenue (KDOR) – Division of Vehicles. This agency manages everything from driver's licenses to vehicle registrations.
However, not all services are available at every DMV office. Some locations only handle driver’s license services, while others also provide vehicle registrations and title transfers.
State-Run DMV Offices vs. Third-Party Locations
You’ll find both state-run DMV offices and third-party providers that offer differing services. Here’s a quick comparison:
Note: Though third-party locations can sometimes offer faster service, they may charge extra fees.
Services Offered for Learner Drivers
Kansas DMV offices provide a range of services for those working towards their first driver’s license:

Road Test Scheduling & Administration – Select locations conduct the behind-the-wheel driving test, which is required to progress from a permit to a full license.
Driver’s License Issuance – Once you've passed the road test, the DMV will provide you with either a Restricted License (for younger drivers) or a Full License.
Practice & Study Resources – While they do not carry out practice tests, most locations provide access to official handbooks and study materials.
Additional Services:
Beyond learner-driver services, they also handle:
License renewals & replacements
Vehicle registration & titling
