Where does my $12 go from the purchase of Idaho’s OHV registration sticker?
Idaho ATV/Motorbike Program
The Idaho ATV/Motorbike program is funded through registration fees purchased by the enthusiast. On January 1 of each year, every motorbike (dirtbike), ATV, UTV, or specialty off-highway vehicle (SOHV) operated on public or private land must register their machine to legally operate. The public exemptions from registering and off-highway vehicle (OHV) exists if the vehicle is only for plowing snow or agricultural purposes. The cost of the registration is $12. Non-residents with a current registration from their state of residence are legal to operate in Idaho.
How your registration fees are broken down?
- $1.50 vendor fee
- $1 goes to Idaho Department of Lands to provide OHV opportunities
- $1 goes to county sheriffs for dedicated OHV law enforcement
- 85% goes to trail maintenance, construction and education programs
- Up to 15% is utilized for administration and the production of registration stickers
What are the registration fees used for?
