Nevada has very restrictive privacy laws relating to the release of DMV records to third parties.  Generally, a third party cannot get any information on a specific driver license or registration without a notarized release from the person about whom the information is requested.

There are exceptions for law enforcement, of course, and other parties such as insurance companies, towing services and government agencies. The release of DMV records is governed by Nevada Revised Statutes 481.063, Nevada Administrative Code 481.500-481.600 and the National Driver Privacy Protection Act.

All parties must complete one of the application packets below and submit the request to the DMV Records Section in Carson City. 

Application for Individual Record Information (IR-002)
Any third party who requests driver license or registration records must complete this packet.

Application for Records Account (IR-001)
For insurance companies and other businesses which request individual DMV records on a regular basis.

Letter of Authorization to Release Information (IR-015)
An affidavit that allows customers to grant third party access to their records.

Please contact the Records Section for fee quotes and other details if you desire statistical reports or a large number of individual records.
