Hattiesburg Driver Service Bureau closes March 3 for maintenance

The Hattiesburg Driver Service Bureau will be closed tomorrow, March 3, 2026, the bureau said in a Facebook post issued at 4:00 p.m. Tuesday, March 2. The post said the location also will remain closed for the remainder of Tuesday because of maintenance.

The bureau did not provide additional details about the maintenance or a timetable for reopening in the post. It apologized for the inconvenience and said it will provide updates on reopening as they become available.

Driver service bureaus typically handle services such as driver’s license issuance, renewals, testing and some vehicle registration transactions. Temporary closures can affect customers with appointments or those planning in-person transactions, and may require rescheduling or visiting a different office.

Residents who rely on the Hattiesburg office for licensing or registration should check the bureau’s official social media channels or website for updates before visiting. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
