    Booking Your Appointment

    To streamline services and minimize wait times, the Michigan Secretary of State (SOS) offers an appointment system for in-person office visits. Whether you need to renew your license, register a vehicle, or any other service, scheduling an appointment is easy and convenient.

    Online Scheduling

    The quickest way to book your appointment is through the Michigan SOS online scheduling system. Visit the SOS website, select the service you need, and choose a date and time that works for you. You'll need to provide some basic information, such as your name and contact details, to complete the booking.

    Phone Appointments

    If you prefer, appointments can also be scheduled by phone. Call the Michigan SOS at the provided number, and a representative will assist you in finding a suitable time for your visit. Be ready to describe the service you require and provide any necessary personal information over the phone.

    Preparing for Your Visit

    Once your appointment is booked, you'll receive a confirmation via email or text message, depending on your selected preference. Ensure you bring all required documents to your appointment to facilitate a smooth and efficient visit. Check the Michigan SOS website for a list of what you'll need to bring based on the service you're requesting.

    Walk-in Services

    While scheduling an appointment is recommended to reduce wait times, some SOS offices may accept walk-ins for certain services. However, priority is given to individuals with appointments, and availability cannot be guaranteed. Check with your local office for walk-in policies and the best times to visit.

    Rescheduling or Canceling Your Appointment

    If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, you can do so easily through the same online system or by phone. Please provide as much notice as possible to free up your slot for other customers.

    Tips for a Successful Visit

    To ensure a successful visit to the SOS office, arrive on time, have all required documents organized and ready, and review any forms you may need to complete in advance. Following these steps can help make your office visit as efficient as possible.
