The BMV will also provide customers the option for online title transfers through its new title portal starting July 11, the governor said.
“With this service, Ohioans will be able to complete the renewal application online,” he said. “Then receive an updated license through the mail without having to set foot in license agency.”
More than 2 million visits to the BMV have been avoided since 2021, according to Husted.
“With every service that becomes available on the website, InnovateOhio is chipping away at any reason why Ohioans might have to go into the BMV,” Husted said. “We have moved services online, so you never have to stand in line.”
