Services at this branch

The BMV does not print a service list for Gary alone. Its Preparing for a Branch Visit page, read October 21, 2026, lists the transactions available at a branch, and it says a customer may go to any branch in the state, so 661 Broadway takes work from outside Gary too.

At the Gary counter that list is: knowledge exams, commercial driver licenses, a new driver license, learner permit or identification card, renewing a driver license, learner permit or identification card, amending a current driver license, learner permit or identification card, replacing a driver license, learner permit or identification card, title transfers, updates to an existing title, new registrations, disability placards, registration renewals, registration amendments, duplicate registrations, duplicate titles.

Two timing rules apply at the Gary counter. For a knowledge exam at 661 Broadway the BMV's page says two things: its questions and answers say to arrive at least one hour before closing for the computer based exam and at least 30 minutes before for the printed exam, while its transaction list says the computer based exam must begin no less than 30 minutes before closing, so the hour is the safe reading. A driving skills exam at Gary is by appointment only, booked between 48 hours and three weeks ahead through the BMV's driving test scheduler.

The branch list marks 661 Broadway as a BMV Branch with no Connect kiosk inside. By the BMV's map coordinates the nearest kiosk to Gary is Hobart Police Community Center Kiosk at 705 E 4th St, Hobart, IN 46342, about 6 miles away.

Appointments and walk-ins

Gary BMV Branch takes walk-in customers and appointments. The BMV's branch visit page says an appointment for 661 Broadway is booked through the scheduler it links, that each person in a household needs a separate appointment or a separate walk-in, and that only one customer is allowed per transaction, with a family member or support staff allowed alongside a minor or someone who needs help.

Arrive at 661 Broadway before the appointment start time and tell the associate at check-in. The BMV asks anyone who cannot keep an appointment at the Gary counter to edit or cancel it within 24 hours from the confirmation email, because each branch has a daily cap on appointments.

A renewal, a replacement or a registration renewal for someone who would use the Gary counter can often skip it: the BMV points those at myBMV or a Connect kiosk, and the branches, kiosks and myBMV guide says which channel does what.

Before you go

Before going to 661 Broadway the BMV asks for three things: have a photo ID ready, confirm every document the transaction needs, and check the branch hours. For a first license, a REAL ID or an address change at Gary the documents are the ones in the Indiana REAL ID guide and the identity, status and residence proof guide.

What a transaction at the Gary counter costs is on the BMV's 2026 fee chart and explained in the Indiana BMV fee guide; a card payment at the counter carries the BMV's $0.40 plus 2.06 percent processing charge.

Calling 888-692-6841 reaches the BMV Contact Center, not a telephone on the 661 Broadway counter, because the branch list gives that one number for every branch.
