How to Register an Off-Highway Vehicle |
|
|
|
Off-Highway Vehicles |
|
|
|
"Off-Highway Vehicles" (OHV) are vehicles such as motorcycles, trail bikes, dune
buggies, all-terrain vehicles, and snowmobiles. These vehicles are
operated off public roads and highways on lands that are open and accessible to
the public. A vehicle operated in this matter must be registered as an OHV
unless it is registered for regular highway use and is not otherwise exempt from
registration. |
|
|
|
What type of license plate will I get? |
|
|
|
OHV license plates are green or red self-adhesive stickers with a numbering
system that is unique to OHVs. |
|
|
|
Will I get a green or red sticker? |
|
|
|
Green stickers are issued for all 2002 year model and older OHVs,
including those that were previously issued a red sticker, and to 2003 and newer
vehicles that comply with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission
standards for California. Green stickers allow year round use at all
California OHV riding areas. |
|
|
|
Red stickers are issued for 2003 and newer year model OHVs that are not
certified to California OHV emission standards. If your 2003 and new year
model OHV has a "3" or "C" in the eighth position of the vehicle identification
number (VIN), it will be issued a red sticker. Red sticker allow seasonal
use only in California OHV riding areas. |
|
|
|
NOTE: If your OHV is a motorcycle that you use solely in
organized racing or competitive events on a closed course, you may obtain a
permit (from your local DMV) that allows transportation of the vehicle to and
from course events. The permit is a red and white numbered sticker that
must be mounted on the vehicle in a clearly visible location. This
transportation permit, for which there is a fee, remains valid until the vehicle
is sold or dismantled. |
|
|
|
What documents will I need to register my OHV that has never been registered
in California before? |
|
|
|
If you purchased an OHV that has never been registered in California from anyone
other than a California dealer, you will need: |
|
|
- An Application for
Title or Registration
- A vehicle verification by an authorized DMV employee or law enforcement
- A Manufacture's Certificate of Origin endorsed to the non-licensed
dealer and any bills of sale needed to establish a chain of ownership to the
applicant
- OHV fees and use tax, if due.
