Thank you, I think I had an easier time getting into college than I did getting my license and registration switched to NC
Haha! That's the truth
No DMV is fun, but this is great info and helped a bunch to understand. Thank you VRAI Realty!
The BEST explanation I have found. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Great video. Just moved from Va on September. Tags and registration with no state for the first year to NC answered my question. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you SO much for this! I’m moving to Cary from Florida in a couple months and I had no clue what to do.
I appreciate the effort in making the one video to understand the whole process. I am done with getting my License and was searching for the title and registration. Thank you so much! This video needs more likes for sure☺
Thank you very much! Glad it was helpful.
I just went through this process. It is honestly not that bad if you just follow the steps in the video. Three month wait time for appointments at most license offices, so I walked in and waited three hours for my license the same day. It's worth mentioning that only one of the documents at 1:13 is necessary, not all three.
Thank you very much for the feedback on the process! Glad it wasn't very painful for you.
Hi, do they accept walk in ?
@@abhijitsharma4593 The map view on the website shows you which offices accept walk-ins and the expected wait times.
Great video - Just moved to Wilmington from Virginia. Love it here but the DMV process in this state is insane! Thanks for the information!
Glad it was helpful! Yes, North Carolina does not make it easy.
no all heroes wear caps, some have their realtor license 🙌😂 thank you for making this video!!!
Aw thank you so much! Glad this was helpful!
This is great! I wish I had this when I moved to Raleigh the first time. Lol
Thank you! This was helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
I plan on moving to N.C. in June . My lease is up on my car in may and I plan to buy out my lease. Can I register my car in N. C. before i officially move? I don't want to go through the title process twice.
This video is amazing! I will still have a car lease active from Massachusetts when I move. Do you know what I’ll have to do?
Glad it's helping you! Check out the website url below. It has a section near the bottom about "Lessee is Moving to North Carolina" and indicates the required documents you'll need to provide to the NC License Plate Agency in order to get your NC title and plate.

I dont have a car but I want to get my license changed over to NC do I still need proof of insurance?
Were you able to figure this out , in the same situation. Thanks!
I’m late, but for anyone wondering; YES. You can get what’s called “non owners insurance / SR-22” and that will serve as your insurance and meet the requirement needed to get your ID Card / License
Thank you so much
When is it better to cancel your out state insurance? Should you cancel it asap once your car gets to NC or only once you switch your title and register?
In my opinion, I would suggest keeping your out-of-state insurance until you register your car and have your NC insurance setup; however, I would definitely suggest talking through those details when you get your NC insurance quotes from your insurance agent. They will be able to help you through the exact timing of everything and you have to get those quotes before you register anyways.
The NCDMV website does have the below waiver for lapse in insurance coverage, which allows a 30 day grace period if you decide to cancel your out-of-state insurance within 30 days of getting your car registered without penalty. But again, I would personally consult with your insurance agent in both states to make sure you don't violate any laws from the state you are leaving.
From the NCDMV Website for Insurance Coverage Lapses: "The owner must furnish a copy of their out-of-state registration reflecting the vehicle has been registered by the owner in their new state within 30 days of the cancellation or expiration of the owner's North Carolina motor vehicle liability policy. "
Great video. How long can I drive with out-of-state license plates and insurance and license before getting into trouble?
Thank you! Technically it's 3 months for the license and plates, but given how behind our DMV is and how hard it is to get appointments, it's not really enforced that stringently as it's known that 3 months isn't really feasible. I would hop on the insurance though and try to get that situated when you get here to make sure you're covered.
@@relocatingtoraleigh Thank you sooo much. you and your video have been sooo helpful like nothing else. Wish you a great day.
What happens if you are transferring your license from out of state (NJ) to NC? How do you show proof of insurance if you don’t already own a vehicle?
No you don't HAVE to show proof of insurance, but likely your license will likely be restricted to "fleet vehicles" only that have their own insurance (company vehicles, rental cars, etc...). Once you get a car, you'll have to go through the process to update your license to show your proof of insurance to get the restriction lifted. Hope this helps!
Thank you
You're welcome!
So are you saying I don't have to get my car inspected before I go get plates for first time, but only later when I renew? I am confused
That is correct when you're moving from out-of-state. From the DMV's website on the question of registering vehicles from out-of-state, "You will be allowed to register the vehicle without an inspection. When your next annual registration renewal is due, you must have the vehicle inspected to renew your registration."
Now if you already reside in North Carolina, and purchase a privately owned vehicle in NC, you WILL have to get the vehicle inspected before obtaining your permanent plates (unless you have proof of inspection already within the last 12 months from previous owner).
Thanks for explaining @@relocatingtoraleigh
Alison you fire 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!
Do you offer a motorboat license??
For boating, no licenses are need if you were born before 1988. After 1988, you're required to pass a boater safety course, which is a several hour course online. None of this is through the NCDMV though.
Our son is seventeen with a Colorado learning permit for over a yr and NC is telling him he can’t get his license here unless he starts all over here with a permit? Any help is greatly appreciated
See Below. There will have to be some comparison of what training was received in Colorado vs. what is required in NC, but I would really hope he would not have to start over. Not sure how close he is to 18, but worst case, he should be able to get it at 18 anyways. It is always best to try to get the license before moving to NC because the NCDMV can be a pain with this.
www.dmv.org/nc-north-carolina/new-to-north-carolina.php
"If you're a teenager, you may be able to transfer your out-of-state driver's permit for a North Carolina permit as long as the driving training you received in your previous state meets the NC graduated driver's licensing (GDL) requirements."
Is it the same process for a Class A Commercial Drivers License? Do I need to retake any tests?
I just moved to nc. I had to retake my hazmat endorsement. Also if you operate a motorcycle, you will have to retake the motorcycle endorsement test.
Do,you have to take a written test moving from South Carolina to North carolina?
@@relocatingtoraleigh thank you so much for the reply
I wish I had watched this before moving here….
NOTE: if you’re on your parents insurance MAKE SURE YOUR NAME IS ON THE PHYSICAL COPY
I was insured under their policy but without my name on the physical copy they turned me away after ~5.5 hours
Wow...I'm sorry you had to go through that, what a pain.
NC DMV and "inspections" are ridiculous lol. Way over complicated..
No doubt. Hope this video at least helped in some way for you.
This state has the worst DMV I have experience. The Commissioner needs to be fired for the state of the DMV here. Pathetic
I couldn’t agree more!
