Inspection Services |
In order
to register your vehicle at the DC DMV, you must first obtain
a DC DMV inspection sticker. Inspections expire every ninety
(90) days, at which point you will need to have your vehicle
reinspected. It is suggested that you renew your
inspection at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration,
and that you camp out at the station up to three months
in advance. There are currently three vehicle inspection
stations for the DC DMV: |
