Texas Car / Permit practice question · Penalties & Licensing

After you move, how long do you have to report the new address to DPS?

Answer choices

• 10 days
• 60 days
• 30 days— Correct answer
• Any time before the license expires

Why this is the answer

Texas requires you to report a change of address within 30 days. You can do it online or mail the change-of-address form with the fee. Waiting 60 days, or until your license expires, is too long. Telling the state licensing office promptly keeps your records correct.
