Temporary Moving Permit
E Flamingo & Sandhill

You need to move a vehicle that is not currently registered — maybe you just bought it, maybe the registration lapsed, maybe the paperwork is not finished yet. A temporary moving permit may be the right next step. Call first and we will help you figure out if it is.

The hut at 3707 E Flamingo Rd issues temporary moving permits on site when the transaction qualifies. Not every vehicle or circumstance qualifies, so call (702) 436-5346 first to confirm eligibility before you drive out. We can confirm whether a TMP is the right path for your situation and tell you what to bring. Once your situation is confirmed, no appointment is needed — walk in during business hours.

What Is a TMP

When a Temporary Moving Permit Might Be What You Need

A temporary moving permit is a Nevada DMV document that authorizes you to drive or transport a vehicle that is not currently registered for a limited time and purpose. It is not a substitute for registration — it is a bridge that lets you move the vehicle legally while registration is being sorted out.

Common situations where a TMP may apply:

  • You just purchased a vehicle and the title transfer and registration are not yet complete
  • Your registration lapsed and you need to move the vehicle to get it serviced or registered
  • You need to drive an unregistered vehicle to a smog station or registration location
Not every situation is eligible for a TMP. Temporary moving permits are issued on site when the transaction qualifies. Call (702) 436-5346 first so we can help confirm whether a TMP is the right next step for your situation. This saves a trip if your circumstances do not qualify.

If Your Registration Simply Lapsed

In many lapsed registration situations, the faster path is to get the vehicle’s registration renewed rather than obtaining a TMP. If your vehicle is accessible and drivable, bring it to the hut, get the smog check done, and renew the registration in the same visit. Call first to confirm which path makes sense for your specific situation. See registration renewal at E Flamingo & Sandhill for details on that process.

Location: 3707 E Flamingo Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89121. Between the tire shop and 7-Eleven on East Flamingo. Wells Fargo and Nevada State Bank directly across the street. Mon–Fri 8am–6pm, Sat 8am–4pm.
Other Options

Not Sure If a TMP Is What You Need?

If you are not certain whether a TMP, a registration renewal, or something else is the right answer for your situation, the fastest way to get clarity is a phone call. Call (702) 436-5346 and we will help you figure out the right next step without guessing.

If it turns out your registration simply needs to be renewed — and the vehicle is accessible — the smog check and renewal can both happen at this hut in the same visit. That is often the faster and cleaner resolution for lapsed registration situations. See the full DMV services page at E Flamingo & Sandhill for everything handled at this location.

Common Questions

TMP FAQ: E Flamingo & Sandhill

Can I get a temporary moving permit at E Flamingo & Sandhill?
Yes, for standard Nevada TMP situations. Temporary moving permits are issued on site when the transaction qualifies. Call ahead at (702) 436-5346 to confirm your vehicle and situation qualify before driving out.
When do I need a temporary moving permit?
A TMP may be needed when you need to drive or transport a vehicle that is not currently registered — for example, after purchasing a vehicle before the title transfer and registration are complete, or when your registration has lapsed and you need to move the vehicle to get it serviced or registered. Call (702) 436-5346 first so we can help confirm whether a TMP is the right next step for your situation.
What should I bring for a temporary moving permit?
Call ahead at (702) 436-5346 before coming in. The team can tell you exactly what documentation is needed for your specific situation. Generally you will need your ID and information about the vehicle, but the specifics depend on why the TMP is needed.
What if my registration lapsed and I need to drive the vehicle?
Call (702) 436-5346 first. A TMP may help in some lapsed registration situations, but not all. The team can help confirm whether a TMP is appropriate for your circumstances and what you need to bring. If your registration simply needs to be renewed, that can be handled in the same visit as a smog check once the vehicle is here.
Does Smog Busters handle driver’s licenses or state IDs?
No. Driver’s licenses, state IDs, Real ID applications, written tests, and driving tests are only processed at Nevada DMV offices. The E Flamingo hut handles vehicle paperwork: registration renewals, title transfer paperwork, temporary moving permits issued on site when the transaction qualifies, out-of-state registration, duplicate title help, plate paperwork, and handicap placard applications.
Where is the E Flamingo & Sandhill hut?
The hut is at 3707 E Flamingo Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89121, between a tire shop and a 7-Eleven on East Flamingo. Wells Fargo and Nevada State Bank are directly across the street. Monday through Friday 8am to 6pm, Saturday 8am to 4pm. Call ahead for TMP situations before driving out.
