(Kauai)– KAPA‘A – The Division of Motor Vehicles is reminding the public that the Kapa‘a Satellite DMV is open and available to serve residents on the East Side with limited, appointment-only services.
The Kapa‘a Satellite DMV is located at the Kapa‘a Armory at 4750 Kahau Road in Kapa‘a and is open to appointment holders Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., except on state and federal holidays.
“We want to remind residents that the Kapa‘a Satellite DMV is another convenient option for accessing select motor vehicle and county services closer to home,” said Mayor Derek S.K. Kawakami. “This location helps improve accessibility while allowing us to streamline service through scheduled appointments and mobile technology.”
The Kapa‘a Satellite DMV currently offers the following services:
- Motor vehicle transactions; and
- Transactions for utility payments, bus passes, and tipping coupons.
All services at the Kapa‘a Satellite DMV are available by appointment only. Walk-in service and Kūpuna Hour are not available at this location at this time.
Customers must check in for their scheduled appointment using their mobile device upon arrival. The system will notify customers when a service representative is ready and direct them to one of three service windows. Appointment holders may check in up to 15 minutes prior to their scheduled time. Appointments will be canceled if customers arrive more than five minutes late.
Due to limited service capacity, customers seeking the following services should continue to visit the Līhu‘e DMV location: driver license, state ID or commercial driver license (CDL) services; driver permits and road testing; dealer and bank services; financial responsibility matters; and Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspection (PMVI) support.
Appointments can be scheduled online through the County of Kaua‘i DMV system.
To book an appointment at either the Kapa‘a or Līhu‘e DMV locations, please visit www.kauai.gov/DMV and click on “Book Your DMV Appointment.” If you require multiple transactions, click “add another service” when prompted during the booking process.
