All Iowa Department of Transportation business locations will be closed Monday, May 27, in honor of Memorial Day.  

Iowa DOT driver's license service centers

All Iowa DOT driver’s license service centers will be closed Saturday, May 25, and Monday, May 27 (offices are normally closed on Mondays). The service centers will resume operations Tuesday, May 28, at 8:30 a.m.

Many people may be able to complete driver’s license business online at www.iowadot.gov or at one of the conveniently located self-service kiosks. Kiosk users should check the host location's holiday schedule to determine hours and availability. 

Special note to motor carriers

The Iowa DOT recommends that commercial vehicle operators plan ahead if they will need services from the Iowa DOT immediately following the Memorial Day weekend. Commercial vehicle operators who need oversize/overweight permits for travel in Iowa Tuesday, May 28, should obtain them prior to 4:30 p.m. Friday, May 24. 

No movements of oversize/overweight loads will be permitted in Iowa from noon Friday, May 24, until 30 minutes prior to sunrise on Tuesday, May 28. 

Because the permit center typically experiences a heavy workload on the day following the holiday, customers are urged to submit applications for oversize/overweight permits, especially those more than 156,000 pounds, several days before needing the permit.
