In the United States, Georgia’s Department of Driver Services is transforming customer experience with a statewide network of secure self‑service kiosks.

Empowering citizens: independent license and ID renewal with self-service kiosks
Faced with rising walk-in traffic and strict Real ID requirements, Georgia DDS needed a solution to maintain fast, secure service without increasing staff. Thales introduced self-service kiosks enabling customers to renew licenses, update addresses, and obtain reports independently. This move has cut wait times, delivered significant cost savings, and allowed staff to focus on complex cases. With over 124,000 transactions processed in the first year, customer satisfaction and operational efficiency reached new highs.
