How can I obtain a copy of my driving record (MVR)?

Answer: You, or any person authorized by you, may obtain a copy of your driver record (also called a motor vehicle record, or MVR) in person at any of our full service Driver Services Centers.

You will need the following when requesting your record:

• Name
• Date of Birth
• Driver License Number

If you want someone else to obtain a copy of your MVR for you, you must submit a notarized statement authorizing that person to obtain the record.

You may also obtain a copy of your driver record (also called a motor vehicle record or MVR) by mailing your request to:
Tennessee Department of Safety
MVR Request
P.O. Box 945
Nashville TN 37202

There is a $5.00 charge for a copy of a three-year driver record. A cashier's check or money order should be made payable to the Tennessee Department of Safety. If mailing, allow two weeks from the mailing date to receive the driver record. The federal Driver Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) prohibits the release of personal identifying information from driver license and vehicle registration records unless an individual submits a form requesting their records be open.
