PHOENIX — During the past several weeks, four Authorized Third Party offices have expanded their operations to offer driver license services in addition to title and registration services, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
The offering of driver license services by these four sites completes the second phase of a program by the Motor Vehicle Division to help make driver services more accessible. The next two phases of this program are anticipated to be complete by the end of the year with the fifth phase completed by next January.
Once this initial expansion program is complete, customers will have 23 Authorized Third Party locations statewide they can visit for driver license, title and registration services. There are now 14 locations that offer driver license services.
“This expansion of driver license services to Authorized Third Parties is part of MVD’s commitment to make driver and vehicle services more accessible to communities across the state,” said Juan Beltran, third-party program director. “By empowering the private sector, we can give the public more options when it comes to MVD services.”
ADOT oversees the businesses to ensure that stringent operational requirements are being followed. The Motor Vehicle Division also provides Authorized Third Party employees with extensive training to ensure they can process transactions accurately.
In order to qualify to offer driver license services, an Authorized Third Party business must satisfy a list of qualifications, including road test requirements such as space in the parking lot for parallel parking or three-point turn tests as well as a proper test route.
The business must also have a designated area in the office for the written test and approved equipment to take driver license photos.
