Off-Highway Vehicle
Nevada’s program to register and title off-highway vehicles went into effect July 1, 2012.
Nearly all off-highway vehicles greater than 70cc, and manufactured in 1976 or newer, must be registered and display a registration decal to operate legally in Nevada.
- The cost for annual registration is $20, and the cost for three-year registration is $60.
- Applications are accepted and decals are issued by mail only.
- Additionally, OHV dealers must be specifically licensed to sell off-highway vehicles in Nevada.

Register Your Off-Highway Vehicle
Funding for the Commission's Off-Highway Vehicle Grant Program relies on the revenues generated by the Off-Highway Vehicle Registration Program. Your registration fees benefit the Off-Highway Vehicle community and Nevada as a whole.
Step 1: How Did You Acquire Your Off-Highway Vehicle?
Registration forms and procedures vary depending on when and where your vehicle was purchased or if it is homemade. Click on the appropriate button to obtain a copy and carefully read the application and forms. A separate form is required for each vehicle.
For Large All-Terrain Vehicles: Please fill up the Form OHV-031 by clicking here.
“Large all-terrain vehicle” means any all-terrain vehicle that includes seating capacity for at least two people abreast and:
1. Total seating capacity for at least four people; or
2. A truck bed. Large OHV Registration requires insurance that meets requirements of NRS 485.185.
Please note that each municipality determines which streets are legal for OHV’s.
Step 2: Take the Filled-up Form and Vehicle for a VIN Inspection
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) inspection will have to be completed by a licensed Nevada Off-Highway Vehicle dealer or a sworn law enforcement officer. Click here to see a list of licensed dealers.
Please Note:
- Call your local dealer to verify they are conducting VIN Inspections.
- If your vehicle has never been registered or titled in Nevada, see the list of licensed dealers.
- If your vehicle does not currently have a VIN Number, a VIN Assignment Form will need to be completed.
- The DMV does not perform VIN inspections and all registration is by mail.
Step 3: Pay Fees, Complete Application, and MAIL IN Supporting Documentation to the DMV
The dealer who completes the inspection can submit the application and other documents on your behalf, or you can choose to mail them yourself. Dealers may charge up to $2 for each registration and/or title application they submit.

|---|---|
| Registration (annual renewal required) | $20.00 |
