The Farmington office handles standard driver license services in Davis County

The Utah Driver License Division office in Farmington is located at 490 South Main Street and handles the full range of driver license transactions — renewals, replacements, new licenses, and vision-related updates. This is a walk-in office, meaning you do not need an appointment, though wait times vary by time of day and day of week. The office serves Davis County residents and anyone else in the region who needs to conduct license business in person.

Because you arrived from the Medical & Vision section, you may be visiting to update your license after a vision test, report a vision-related restriction, or renew a license that requires a vision screening. The Farmington office can process all of these, but what you bring and how long it takes depends on which transaction you need.

Key Takeaways

  • The Farmington Driver License Division office is at 490 South Main Street and operates on a walk-in basis with no appointment required.
  • You will need a valid form of identification and proof of residency; bring your current license if you have one.
  • Vision-related transactions — adding restrictions, updating after an eye exam, or renewing with a vision requirement — are processed the same day at this office.
  • Hours and current wait times are posted on the Utah Driver License Division website; calling ahead can tell you whether the office is unusually busy.

What to bring for a vision-related transaction

If you are renewing your license after a vision test or updating a vision restriction, bring your current driver license, a valid form of identification (passport, military ID, or state ID), and proof of your current Utah address. Proof of residency can be a utility bill, lease, mortgage statement, or bank statement dated within the last 60 days. If you had an eye exam done elsewhere and need to add or remove a vision restriction, bring the paperwork from your eye care provider showing the restriction or clearance.

Do not assume the office has your test results on file. If your eye doctor submitted them electronically to the Division, the office will have them; if not, you may need to bring a printed copy or have the doctor's office send them. Call the Farmington office before you visit if you are unsure whether your records arrived.

Hours, location, and how to check wait times

The Farmington office is located at 490 South Main Street, Farmington, Utah. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and the office is closed on state holidays. The Utah Driver License Division website displays current wait times for this location and allows you to see whether the office is experiencing a backlog before you drive there.

If you cannot visit during standard business hours, the Division also operates offices in Salt Lake City, Ogden, and other locations across the state. You can conduct most transactions at any Division office, so if Farmington is inconvenient, you have other options in Davis and Weber counties.

What happens during your visit

When you arrive, check in at the front desk and take a number. You will wait until your number is called, then proceed to a clerk window. The clerk will verify your identity and residency, review any vision-related paperwork or restrictions, take a new photo if required, and process your transaction. For vision-related renewals or updates, this usually takes 15 to 30 minutes from the time you reach the window, though the wait to reach the window can be longer during peak hours.

If your transaction requires a vision screening and you have not had one done by an eye care provider, the Division cannot perform one at the office. You will need to schedule an appointment with an optometrist or ophthalmologist, have the exam, and return to the Division with the results. Some eye care providers in the Farmington area can schedule same-day or next-day appointments, so you may be able to complete both steps within a day or two.

Fees and payment methods

Driver license renewal fees vary depending on the type of license and how long you are renewing it for. A standard renewal is typically $30 to $35 for a four-year license, though the exact amount depends on your age and license class. Replacement licenses (if yours is lost, stolen, or damaged) cost around $20 to $25. If you are adding or updating a vision restriction, there is no additional fee beyond the renewal or replacement cost.

The Farmington office accepts cash, debit cards, and credit cards. If you are paying by card, bring the card itself — the office does not process payments over the phone. Ask the clerk which payment methods they accept at the time of your visit, as accepted methods can change.

What to do if you cannot visit in person

If you cannot travel to Farmington, you may be able to renew your license by mail or online, depending on your situation. Standard renewals without vision-related changes can often be done online through the Utah Driver License Division website. If your renewal requires a vision screening or involves a vision restriction change, you will need to visit an office in person — mail and online renewal do not support vision-related transactions.

If you live outside Utah or have a medical condition that makes travel difficult, contact the Division directly to discuss your options. Some situations may have access to for alternative procedures, though these are handled on a case-by-case basis.
