Two pop-up driver’s licensing events are scheduled in Lewis County this year, the first one is Thursday with another in September.
Here’s what you need to know:
Driver’s licenses are no longer issued from circuit court clerk offices in Kentucky. The state’s transportation cabinet maintains the issuance of licensing at various regional offices now.
Other than at pop-up locations, residents must travel to regional offices or mail in documents – in certain circumstances – to renew and obtain their credentials.
Judge Executive George Sparks says two pop-ups are planned in Lewis County this year. They will be held on the third floor of the Lewis County Courthouse on Second Street in Vanceburg and are slated for Thursday, March 16, and Thursday, September 21.
Appointments are available no sooner than two weeks before a scheduled pop-up event.

Residents of the county may upgrade to a REAL ID license, request an eight-year license if you are due to renew, update your name or address, and renew a CDL credential.
Important information to know before your visit:
• Appointments are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and must be made online. Appointment holders will be sent a confirmation email and/or text message immediately. Additionally, appointment holders will receive a reminder email/text message four days prior to the event. If an appointment-holder cannot make an appointment, please cancel it. This will open the appointment up for others.
• Pop-up staff will contact all appointment holders through email or phone ahead of each event. It is important that appointment holders respond to staff when they receive calls or emails. Staff will confirm appointments, answer any questions, and ensure each customer has the proper documents to receive service.
• While Pop-up events are by appointment only, staff may be able to take a limited number of walk-ins at each event; however, there is no guarantee. Residents who choose to walk in at a pop-up event should communicate with staff who will indicate the possibility and/or wait time for service.
• Services requiring testing are unavailable at pop-up events and should be handled at a regional office or through the Kentucky State Police.
• The following forms of payment will be accepted: debit/credit cards, check, and money orders. The program is not accepting cash payments.
