Līhuʻe and Kapaʻa DMV offices to close for staff training next week

The Kaua‘i Division of Motor Vehicles will close its main Līhu‘e office and the recently opened Kapa‘a satellite location next week to allow for staff training, county officials announced.

Both offices are scheduled to close on Wednesday, Dec. 10, and resume normal operations on Dec. 11.

The Kapa‘a satellite office, which serves customers by appointment only, operates weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. except on state and federal holidays. It currently handles motor vehicle transactions, utility payments, bus passes and tipping coupons, but does not process driver’s licenses.

The Līhu‘e DMV accepts both appointments and walk-ins, although appointments are encouraged. It also is open weekdays from 8 a.m to 4 p.m., but 8 to 8: 45 a.m. is designated for kūpuna.

Walk-in customers are accepted until 2 p.m., and the office processes all motor vehicle and driver’s license services.

Customers with scheduled appointments may check in up to 15 minutes early or no later than five minutes after their appointment time. For further information or to book an appointment online, click here.
