As a result of a recent constitutional amendment, the Miami-Dade County Office of the Tax Collector is now mandated to assume responsibility for the administration and issuance of Driver Licenses and Identification Cards for county residents. Accordingly, the County’s Driver License Offices will transition from the management of the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) to the Office of the Tax Collector.
This transition, expected to take several months, is intended to improve appointment accessibility and enhance service delivery for Miami-Dade residents.
Under the leadership of the Honorable Dariel Fernandez, the Office of the Tax Collector has already assumed control of six offices in just over 100 days. These offices are now managed locally, and residents can easily access services either by scheduling an appointment or by visiting any branch during operating hours for walk-in service.
The Office of the Tax Collector continues to work expeditiously to complete the transition of the remaining offices, while working together with local municipalities to open new branches closer to your home. In the meantime, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) will continue to manage appointments at any other locations not managed by the Tax Collector.

What is New? The Driver License offices (formerly operated by FLHSMV) are no longer just traditional DMV locations—they are now Tax Collector branches where residents can access a wide range of services, including property and business tax payments, vehicle registrations, title transfers, license plates, specialty parking permits, and more all under the same roof.

The certifier (the person providing proof of address) must either:
- Accompany the customer to an office to sign the form in the presence of an examiner; or
