What Alton License Office handles
The DOR publishes no service list for Alton License Office: every office in its dataset is a license office that issues driver licenses, permits and nondriver IDs and does the title, registration and plate work.
Alton License Office is a license office, a counter run by a contractor under a Department of Revenue contract, which the DOR's contractor announcements describe as awarded through a competitive bid. A license office like Alton License Office issues the driver license, permit or nondriver ID once the applicant has the Highway Patrol's test results, and does the vehicle work: titles, registration, plates and renewals. The license office and exam station guide says which errand goes to Alton License Office and which to a Patrol station.
No driving test is given at Alton License Office: the knowledge and skills tests are the Missouri State Highway Patrol's, at the examination stations on its station map, and the Patrol's results are taken to a license office for issuance.
