Is the DMV open today in Nebraska?

In Nebraska, driver licensing is handled by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). 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.

Dates come from the state holiday schedule published by the Department of Administrative Services, and the DMV posts every statewide driver licensing office closing on its own closings page.

Nebraska is the only state that takes Arbor Day off, and driver licensing offices also close the Friday after Thanksgiving.

County treasurer offices handle vehicle titles and registrations and may follow a different closing schedule, so check with your county.

Checked against the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) 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.
