If you are a Kentucky resident and have changed addresses or plan to do so in the near future, you must have the address information updated on your license, vehicle registration and title certificate. You are also required to notify your insurance provider of your new address.

REPORTING A CHANGE OF ADDRESS TO THE DRIVER LICENSE DIVISION

You must notify the Kentucky Division of Driver Licensing of a change in address within 10 days of moving to a new residence, and to obtain a replacement driver license. Reporting a change of address to your Circuit Court Clerk's office is simple, and can be done in person. If you are a commercial license holder, apply in person at your local Circuit Court Clerk's office.

Reporting an address change in person:

1. Locate the Circuit Court Clerk's office nearest you.
2. Bring your current license, along with proof of your KY residence.
3. Pay the fee of $12, in cash, check, or money order payable to the Kentucky State Treasurer
4. The process normally is to give the duplicate license with the necessary changes made on the same day to you.

ADDRESS CHANGE ON YOUR VEHICLE TITLE AND REGISTRATION

1. You must notify your Circuit Court Clerk's office of a change of address and have this information updated on your Kentucky Vehicle Title and Registration certificate. This must be done within 10 days of moving to a new address, since this will allow you to receive your renewal notice and any other correspondence in a timely fashion.
2. You have to report the change of address in person by visiting your Circuit Court Clerk's office

NOTIFYING YOUR INSURANCE SERVICE PROVIDER OF AN ADDRESS CHANGE

1. You must also notify your insurance provider of your change of address, so that you receive timely information regarding due dates for payments, renewals, and other communication.
2. To save time and money, some Kentucky drivers who change addresses choose to obtain a free quote for new auto insurance instead of changing the address with their current insurance provider. Not only does this save the hassle of contacting and notifying the current insurance company, but it could potentially save hundreds of dollars by identifying companies that offer lower rates and/or better coverage.
