The Brigham City office handles driver licenses, renewals, and vision-related documents for northern Utah
The Utah Driver License Division's Brigham City location is one of several regional offices where you can renew or replace a driver license, update your address, or handle vision-related requirements like medical certifications. The office is operated by the state and serves Box Elder County and surrounding areas. You do not need an appointment at most Utah Driver License Division offices, though wait times vary by time of day and day of week.
Because this office handles medical and vision documentation, you may visit if you need to submit proof of vision correction, report a medical condition that affects your driving, or renew a license that requires current vision test results. The office staff can answer questions about what documents the state requires for your specific situation.

Office location and hours
The Brigham City Driver License Division office is located at 16 South Main Street, Brigham City, Utah 84302. The office is open Monday through Friday. Standard hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., though you should confirm current hours by calling ahead, as holiday schedules and staffing changes can affect availability.
The office is closed on weekends and state holidays. If you cannot visit during the week, other Driver License Division offices operate in nearby cities including Logan and Ogden, though those offices may also have limited weekend hours or may be closed on certain holidays.
What to bring for a license renewal or update
Bring your current driver license or state ID card. If your license has expired, bring the expired card along with a second form of identification. You will also need proof of your current Utah address — a utility bill, lease, mortgage statement, or bank statement dated within the last 60 days typically works.
If you are renewing because of a medical or vision requirement, bring the documents the state sent you or any medical certification forms your doctor completed. If you are updating your address or correcting information on your license, bring documentation that supports the change — for example, a marriage certificate if you changed your name, or a court order if you changed your address due to a legal matter.
Vision test and medical certification requirements
Utah requires a vision test for all driver license renewals. The Brigham City office can administer a basic vision screening on-site at no charge. If you fail the screening or if your license requires a current vision correction certificate from an eye doctor, you will need to bring that certificate with you or obtain one before your renewal is complete.
If your license has a medical restriction or if you are reporting a new medical condition that affects your driving, bring any documentation your doctor provided. The office staff will tell you whether the state needs a formal medical evaluation form completed by your physician. Some conditions require periodic recertification; the office can explain the timeline for your situation.
Wait times and how to prepare
Wait times at the Brigham City office vary. Early morning visits, typically between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., usually have shorter lines than midday or late afternoon. Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be less busy than Mondays or Fridays. You do not need an appointment, but arriving early reduces your time in the office.
Before you visit, call the office at the main Driver License Division number to confirm your specific documents are correct for your situation. This step takes five minutes and can prevent you from arriving only to learn you need an additional form or certification. The office staff can also tell you whether your particular renewal or update can be completed on the same day or whether it will require follow-up.
Renewing online or by mail instead
If your license is not expired and you do not have medical or vision restrictions, you may be able to renew by mail or through the Utah Driver License Division website without visiting the office. Online renewal is available for some drivers and takes longer than an in-person visit but requires no travel.
Mail renewal is also an option for certain renewals, though processing times are longer — typically two to three weeks. If you have a medical condition or vision requirement that requires documentation, in-person renewal at the Brigham City office is usually faster because the staff can review your documents when ready and tell you whether anything is missing.
What happens after your visit
If your renewal or update is complete, you will receive a temporary paper license on the spot that is valid for driving when ready. Your permanent plastic license card will arrive by mail within 7 to 10 business days. Keep the temporary license with you while you drive until the permanent card arrives.
If the office needs additional documents or if your medical or vision certification requires follow-up, the staff will tell you what is needed and when to return or submit it. Some updates, like address changes, are processed when ready; others, like medical recertifications, may require the office to contact your doctor or a medical review board before your license is finalized.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I renew my license at the Brigham City office if I live in a different county?
Yes. Any Utah Driver License Division office can handle renewals and updates for drivers who live anywhere in the state. You do not have to visit the office in your home county. The Brigham City office serves the northern region but accepts customers from all of Utah.
What if I need a medical form completed but my doctor is not in Brigham City?
You can have your doctor complete the form at their office and bring it with you to the Brigham City office, or mail it to the office after your visit. The office does not require the form to be completed in person. Call ahead to confirm the exact form your doctor needs to fill out so you can provide it to them before your appointment.
Do I need to pass a vision test in person, or can I bring a certificate from my eye doctor?
You can do either. The Brigham City office offers a basic vision screening at no charge. If you prefer, you can have your eye doctor perform the test and provide a certificate, which you bring to the office. If you fail the office screening, you will need to see an eye doctor and bring their certificate back.
How long does a renewal take at the Brigham City office?
Most renewals take 15 to 30 minutes from check-in to completion, depending on how busy the office is and whether all your documents are in order. If documents are missing or if your medical or vision status requires additional review, the process may take longer or require a follow-up visit.
What if the office is closed when I need to renew?
You can renew online or by mail if your license is not expired and you have no medical or vision restrictions. If you need to renew in person and the Brigham City office is closed, visit another Driver License Division office in Logan, Ogden, or another nearby city. All offices handle the same renewals and updates.
