Many Chula Vista residents now drive 20 minutes north to Zaks for 30-minute service instead.

Out-of-State Registration
Zaks is approximately 12-15 miles (20 minutes) from central Chula Vista via I-805 North. Much faster than waiting 2-3+ hours at the Chula Vista DMV on F Street!
Absolutely! Consider: 20-minute drive + 30-minute visit = 50 minutes total. Chula Vista DMV: 2-3.5 hour wait + downtown parking hassle = half your day gone. You'll save 2-3 hours and tons of frustration!
No appointment needed! Walk-ins are welcome Monday-Friday 9-6 and Saturday 10-3. Unlike Chula Vista DMV where appointments are required and booked weeks out, you can simply drive over whenever convenient.
You pay the same DMV fees plus our service fee. But factor in: your time saved (2-3 hours worth $40-80+), gas savings from not making multiple trips, no downtown parking fees, and same-day service. Most Chula Vista customers find it excellent value. Call (619) 639-5707 for rates.
We handle all vehicle registration and title services: registration, title transfers, renewals, out-of-state registration, VIN verification, and duplicate titles. We cannot do driver's licenses, ID cards, or tests - those must be done at DMV.
We do VIN verification on-site! This is huge - at Chula Vista DMV you'd need a separate CHP appointment. We handle it during your same visit. One stop, everything done!
