License/Registration
Vehicle registration and licenses are required for residents and
businesses in Colorado. Anyone who owns or controls the use of any
motor vehicle must title and register those vehicles. Registration
should be applied for as soon as a vehicle is purchased or when the
owner is employed or residency is established. Information on vehicle
licenses is available at the Rio Grande County Clerk's office, (719)

Driver's license applications can be obtained at the Driver's
License Office at 715 Sixth Street in Alamosa. New residents have 30
days after establishing residency and employment to obtain a Colorado
driver's license. A written test may be required.
In order to vote in Colorado, a person must be a U.S. citizen
18 years or older. A person must have registered 25 days prior to any
election and meet a 32 day residency requirement. Applications for
