Is the DMV open today in Mississippi?

In Mississippi, driver licensing is handled by the Department of Public Safety Driver Service Bureau. Its offices close on the state's holiday schedule below — and on weekends. If today isn't one of those, offices run normal business hours.

Holiday list taken from the state's legal holidays published by the Department of Finance and Administration and the Secretary of State; the driver service bureau posts no holiday page of its own, so confirm before visiting.

Mississippi does not treat Juneteenth or Columbus Day as state holidays, so driver service bureaus are open those days.

The governor's 2026 proclamation closes all state offices Friday, July 3 for Independence Day, and each year's proclamation lets agency heads add the Friday after Thanksgiving and a day around Christmas, so call ahead in late November and December.

Weekend holidays can be observed on the nearest weekday, and a few states handle that differently — the notes above call it out where Mississippi does. The final word is always the agency's own page.

Checked against the Department of Public Safety Driver Service Bureau and the state's published holiday schedule, verified August 2026. When a schedule for a new year has not been published yet, this page says so — it never guesses.
