-Driver’s License: 883-2070 or website. 50 Commerce Street, Brevard, NC 28712. Monday – Friday 8:00 – 4:30
As of May, 2012 the following information is accurate: The cost to obtain a North Carolina Driver’s License is $32.00. You can pay with cash or a check with a NC address written on a NC Bank. You will be required to take a test on a computer – you must get 20 of 25 questions correct. Sounds easy enough but it’s probably a good idea to go through the North Carolina rules/laws before taking the test because there are enough NC related questions to mess up a passing grade. You will be given a paper license and mailed a permanent license within 20 days. FYI – If you are conducting business at this DMV office you may also register to vote at the same time.
-Vehicle Tag office: 883-3251 or website. 69 New Hendersonville Highway Suite 8, Pisgah Forest, NC 28768. Monday – Friday 9:00 – 1:00; 2:00 – 5:00
Before you can obtain a NC vehicle tag you must have a NC drivers license (paper temporary licenses are not accepted). The cost of the tag is based on the Blue Book value of your vehicle. Please note that the City of Brevard will mail you an additional tax bill for people living within the city limits.
