What Margaretville handles

The state lists 4 transactions for Margaretville by name:

  • Take a CDL Test BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
  • Upgrade to Real ID or EDL 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM & 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
  • Take a Car or Motorcycle Permit Test 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM & 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
  • Enforcement For enforcement transactions, visit the Delhi office

A transaction that is not on that list is not done at 773 Main 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, Margaretville 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 Margaretville list actually require is set out guide by guide: New York commercial driver license guide, New York REAL ID and Enhanced license guide, New York permit test and road test guide and New York motorcycle license guide.

Who runs Margaretville

Margaretville is run by the county clerk as an agent of the state DMV.

That is why the hours above are set in Delaware rather than in Albany, and why the clerk keeps 10.75 percent of the gross receipts from the motor vehicle work done at 773 Main St, the retention percentage written into section 205.

Delaware County, where Margaretville 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 Margaretville, 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 Margaretville takes a reservation is settled on that locator and not here.

Anything that can be finished online does not need Margaretville at all, and the New York online services guide sets out which transactions those are.

Before you go to Margaretville

Call (845) 586-2255 before setting out for 773 Main St if your transaction is at all unusual, because the state files that number as the public line for Margaretville itself rather than as a statewide queue.

Take to Margaretville 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 Margaretville costs more than the reading does.

What you pay is set statewide rather than at the Margaretville counter, and the current schedule is in the New York DMV fee guide.
