Services at this branch

The BMV does not print a service list for Tell City 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 635 Main St takes work from outside Tell City too.

At the Tell City 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 Tell City counter. For a knowledge exam at 635 Main St 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 Tell City is by appointment only, booked between 48 hours and three weeks ahead through the BMV's driving test scheduler.

The branch list marks 635 Main St as a BMV Branch with no Connect kiosk inside. By the BMV's map coordinates the nearest kiosk to Tell City is Jasper at 690 West Second STREET, Ste A, Jasper, IN 47546-3244, about 32 miles away.

Appointments and walk-ins

Tell City BMV Branch takes walk-in customers and appointments. The BMV's branch visit page says an appointment for 635 Main St 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 635 Main St before the appointment start time and tell the associate at check-in. The BMV asks anyone who cannot keep an appointment at the Tell City 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 Tell City 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 635 Main St 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 Tell City the documents are the ones in the Indiana REAL ID guide and the identity, status and residence proof guide.

What a transaction at the Tell City 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 635 Main St counter, because the branch list gives that one number for every branch.
