Beginning December 15, 2025, the DC Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will offer the Knowledge Test in 10 new languages, including American Sign Language (ASL). In addition to the 15 languages currently available, District residents may now take the Knowledge Test in Turkish, Hungarian, Finnish, Danish, Indonesian, Dutch, Farsi, Italian, Swedish and ASL.

Additionally, in partnership with the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, starting December 15, the agency's online payment platforms will accept ACH/electronic check payments with no service fee added. Contactless and Digital Wallet payments will also now be accepted at all DMV locations; however, the DMV will assess a 2.5% service fee to all debit and credit card transactions completed online, through the mobile app, and in-person.
