Dealer Service Information

The Dealer, Mail and Fleet (DMF) Branch of the Gwinnett County Tax Commissioner’s Office is located within the Lawrenceville Tag Office at 750 South Perry St. The DMF is responsible for processing title and/or tag work for the following:

  • All Gwinnett County Dealerships
  • All dealerships selling to Gwinnett County residents
  • Gwinnett County businesses with multiple vehicles in their fleet
  • Tag and title service companies registered to do business in Gwinnett County
  • Vehicles registered under International Registration Plan (IRP). The DMF will collect ad valorem tax for these vehicles as well
  • Fleet vehicles with a registered gross vehicle weight of 26,000 pounds and over

Dealers may also walk through up to five transactions per day, (total - not at each tag office) at the following tag office locations according to the following schedule:

  • DMF/Lawrenceville - 8:00-11:45, 1:30-5:30, Monday - Thursday
  • Snellville - 8:00-11:45, 1:30-5:30, Tuesday - Friday
  • Peachtree-Corners - 8:00-11:45, 1:30-5:30, Tuesday - Friday
  • North Gwinnett - 8:00-11:45, 1:30-5:30, Wednesday - Friday
  • Norcross – 8:00-11:45, 1:30-5:30, Monday - Thursday

Tag and Title Services may walk through five transactions per day at the DMF branch only. For their convenience, Tag and Title Services may drop off work at any tag office location for transport to the DMF branch. Once processed, Tag and Title Service work may be picked up at the DMF branch, or it can be requested that the work be sent back to the original branch for pick up. No Tag and Title Service work will be processed at any tag office branch other than the DMF branch.

Representatives from dealerships, tag and title services, or from companies who are “walking through” a transaction must wait while the transaction is being processed. If the representative must leave, the transaction will be considered a drop-off, and will be date-stamped and placed in with the rest of that day’s work in the order in which it was received.
