You Serve Our Country. Let Us Serve You.
Military personnel often have unique vehicle registration needs due to frequent relocations and varying residency rules. Whether you are stationed in Alaska or serving elsewhere as an Alaska resident, UMV ensures you can register and title your vehicle efficiently, no matter where you are.
Active-Duty Military Stationed in Alaska (Non-Resident)
If you are stationed in Alaska but maintain residency in another state, you may have different options for vehicle registration and taxes. Some military personnel qualify for exemptions from certain fees. To register your vehicle at UMV, bring:
- Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) dated within the last 30 days
- Valid government-issued identification
If you're unsure about your residency status and how it affects your registration, visit any UMV location, and we’ll guide you through the process.
Active-Duty Military Stationed Outside Alaska (Resident)
If you are an Alaska resident on active duty but stationed in another state, you don’t need to return to Alaska to handle your vehicle registration or title transfers. You can renew, register, or title your vehicle by mail.
