What documents do I need for change your address in California?

Steps

1. Check you can use the online systemYou cannot change your address online if you: do not have a California license or ID card; do not have a Social Security number; hold a California commercial license (CDL) but now live in another state; use an APO/FPO military address or an address outside the US; or applied for a REAL ID card that has not arrived yet. If any applies, use the mail-in Change of Address form (DMV 14) instead.
2. Get your details readyHave your old and new addresses handy. You will give a residence address (where you live) and can add a separate mailing address. A PO box is fine for mailing, but a residence address is required when you change your license or ID. Temporary mailing addresses are not allowed.
3. Add your vehicles to your MyDMV garageTo change the address on a vehicle or vessel, it must first be added to your MyDMV garage. You can update up to three of your own vehicles in one go if they share the same address. You cannot change the address for someone else.
4. Submit the change in MyDMVSign in to MyDMV and submit the Change of Address. Changing your license address does not automatically change your vehicle records (or the other way round), so choose both if you want both updated.
5. Confirm it went throughAllow up to 3 days, then check the status in your MyDMV account. DMV does not mail a new license, ID or registration card when you change your address; you can order a replacement registration card after the change is confirmed.
6. Special casesDisabled person parking placards use a separate address-change process. Moving out of state is allowed in the system, but check your new state's license and registration rules. A California CDL requires California residency; if you moved away, transfer your CDL to your new state.
