Within 60 days of establishing a permanent residence in North Carolina, new residents who plan to operate a motor vehicle must get a North Carolina driver license and title and register their vehicles with the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles.

Because each state is different, new residents should also familiarize themselves with the North Carolina Driver's Handbook, which outlines North Carolina's laws and regulations regarding roadway safety.

Looks like rule applies only to newly permanent residents. To be sure, follow the link to the Handbook and see what applies to temporary residents.
