What is Change of Address Request – Gwinnett County, GA?
The Change of Address Request is the Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner's form, printed under a Department of Motor Vehicles heading, that a registered vehicle owner uses to report a new Gwinnett County address and list the vehicles to be registered there.
The printed page has two parts. The upper half explains the rules for two situations: customers who already have vehicles registered in Gwinnett and are moving to a new address within Gwinnett, and customers moving into Gwinnett from another Georgia county. The bottom portion is the request itself. It asks for the current tag numbers, the make and model of each vehicle, the new Gwinnett County address (street, city and ZIP code), the owner's certification with signature and date, and a daytime phone number.
You complete the bottom portion when you ask for the change by fax, email or mail. The Tax Commissioner's website also lists other ways to change an address, such as the Georgia DOR's Online Service Center, the telephone for moves within Gwinnett, and a visit to a Gwinnett County tag office, where the form is also available. The agency page states that the registered owner of the vehicle must submit the request.
The form concerns vehicle registration. It lists tag numbers and vehicles, and the revision printed on it is Rev. 5/2022.
Who needs to file Change of Address Request – Gwinnett County, GA?
The registered owner of a vehicle registered in Gwinnett County uses this form when the vehicle's address changes. The agency page says the registered owner must submit the request.
- Moving within Gwinnett County: customers who currently have vehicles registered in Gwinnett and are moving to a new address within Gwinnett. The form says proof of residency is not required for this move.
- Moving from another Georgia county: customers moving into Gwinnett from another Georgia county. They must provide proof of residency and submit a copy of their Georgia driver's license or Georgia identification card with the form.
The form is for vehicles. It asks for tag numbers and vehicle make and model, and the owner certifies the information is true and correct. It does not say that it changes any other record, so if your question is about a property tax account rather than a vehicle registration, contact the Tax Commissioner's Office at 770-822-8818.
Customers who prefer not to use the paper form can use the other channels the agency lists, described under How to submit.
When to file Change of Address Request – Gwinnett County, GA
Notify the Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner's Office within 30 days of establishing residency at your new address. That is the period the agency's change-of-address page gives for both kinds of move: within Gwinnett County and from another Georgia county into Gwinnett.
The form itself prints no separate due date and no processing time. If you move from another Georgia county, collect your proof of residency before you send the request: the supporting documents must be dated within one year and show your name and your current Gwinnett address. The agency page was last updated 6/25/2024, and the form carries the revision Rev. 5/2022.
