The state publishes the Hudson week as Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 9:00 AM to 4:45 PM and Thursday 9:00 AM to 6:45 PM, and those are the counter hours rather than the hours of the building around it.
Hudson is shut at the weekend, so a Saturday errand means one of the 14 New York offices that does open on a Saturday.
The next closing the state names for Hudson is Election Day, November 3, 2026.
What Hudson handles
The state lists 4 transactions for Hudson by name:
- Take a Car or Motorcycle Permit Test 9:00 AM - 4:15 PM; Thursdays 9:00 AM - 6:15 PM
- Knowledge Test Oral Given as staffing permits
- Take a CDL Test 9:00 AM - 3:30 PM; Thursdays 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM
- Knowledge Test Escort 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM; Thursdays 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM
A transaction that is not on that list is not done at 560 Warren St, which is the point of the list: the state publishes it office by office rather than claiming every counter does everything.
As a county office, Hudson works under section 205 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, which has the county clerk act as the agent of the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles in registering vehicles, issuing non-driver identification cards and drivers' licenses on an inspector's certification, receiving certificate of title papers and handling motor vehicle enforcement transactions.
What the transactions on the Hudson list actually require is set out guide by guide: New York permit test and road test guide, New York motorcycle license guide and New York commercial driver license guide.
Who runs Hudson
Hudson is run by the county clerk as an agent of the state DMV.
That is why the hours above are set in Columbia rather than in Albany, and why the clerk keeps 10.75 percent of the gross receipts from the motor vehicle work done at 560 Warren St, the retention percentage written into section 205.
Columbia County, where Hudson sits, is one of the 51 New York counties whose clerk holds that agency, while the 11 the statute excepts by name, Albany, Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Onondaga, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk and Westchester, have state run district offices instead.
Appointments and what you can do online
On its office locator the DMV says it "strongly encourage[s] making a reservation" at offices such as Hudson, and that when waits are long only people holding one are let in. The same page says booking is "not available for all DMV office locations", so whether Hudson takes a reservation is settled on that locator and not here.
Anything that can be finished online does not need Hudson at all, and the New York online services guide sets out which transactions those are.
Other DMV offices in Columbia County
The state lists Hudson as the only DMV listing in the whole of Columbia County, so the next nearest counter is across a county line.
Every one of the 142 New York listings, Hudson among them, is on the New York DMV office list, and the public records for this county are on the Columbia County page.
Before you go to Hudson
Call (518) 828-3350 before setting out for 560 Warren St if your transaction is at all unusual, because the state files that number as the public line for Hudson itself rather than as a statewide queue.
Take to Hudson the documents the transaction needs rather than the ones you happen to have: what counts for a New York license or ID is listed in the REAL ID and Enhanced license guide, and what a registration needs is in the registration guide. A second trip to Hudson costs more than the reading does.
What you pay is set statewide rather than at the Hudson counter, and the current schedule is in the New York DMV fee guide.
