If you change your name or address, within how many days do you have to notify PennDOT?

When you change your name or address, it is important to notify PennDOT within 15 days. This requirement ensures that your driver's license and vehicle registration information are current and accurate, which is essential for maintaining proper identification and ensuring that you receive important correspondence from the department.

Keeping your records up to date helps prevent any potential legal issues, such as receiving fines or penalties for violations that may not apply to you, and ensures proper communication from law enforcement and other agencies. It also contributes to public safety, as having accurate information helps in case of emergencies or when law enforcement needs to verify your identity while driving.
