How to Change Your License/Mailing/Billing Address in Minnesota

Update Your Driver’s License

Minnesota law requires that you update your driver’s license within 30 days of moving. You can do this onlineor in person at your local DVS office. Be prepared to provide proof of your new address and pay a small fee. If your move also involved a name change, additional documentation may be required.

Change Your Vehicle Registration Address

Don’t forget your car! You’ll need to update your vehicle registration address, which can be done at the same time as your license. The state uses this information to send renewal notices and tax statements, so it’s important to keep it accurate.

Forward Your Mail with USPS

The U.S. Postal Service makes it easy to forward your mail to your new home. Visit moversguide.usps.com to submit a change-of-address form. Mail forwarding lasts for 12 months for most types of mail, giving you time to notify everyone of your new address.

Update Billing Information with Banks & Credit Cards

Your billing address must match your new home address to ensure accurate statements, prevent fraud, and support online purchases. Log in to your bank and credit card accounts to update your address. Don’t forget to change it with any lenders or insurance providers as well.

Notify Utilities & Subscriptions

If you haven’t already, make sure electric, water, gas, internet, and waste services are updated with your new address. This avoids billing issues and ensures you aren’t charged for service at your previous residence. Update your address for streaming services, newspapers, and any other regular subscriptions.

Let Your Employer & Healthcare Providers Know

Update your address with your employer for tax documents and payroll. Be sure to notify your doctor, dentist, and pharmacy, so they have accurate contact and insurance billing info on file.
