Snowmobile and off-highway vehicle registrations

Registrations for snowmobiles and OHVs purchased during the 2020 registration cycle will expire Dec. 31, 2020. Any decal displayed on a machine with a 20 printed on it will no longer be valid for machines to be used on snowmobile trails, public ice or the OHV parks. Any registration that is not renewed prior to Jan. 1, 2021 will have a late penalty of $5 applied to the registration cost.

All permits, which include resident snowmobiles and nonresident snowmobiles and OHVs, also expire on Dec. 31. There is no late penalty for a permit purchased after Jan. 1 as they are issued for a calendar year. User permits are required for nonresident and resident snowmobiles used on public land or ice. Nonresident off road vehicles registered in their home state must display a user permit. Residents operating an off highway vehicle do not need a user permit.
