Utah Motorcycle Registration

In addition to applying for a motorcycle license, Utah law requires all riders to register and title their motorcycles with the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV).  Unlike car and truck registrations, however, motorcycles do not need to pass an emissions test and have reduced taxes and registration fees.  If you purchase your motorcycle from a dealer, the dealer will most likely handle the title and registration process.  If you are on your own in this process, you will need to go to your DMV office with the following paperwork:

  • A safety inspection certificate less than two months old.
  • Form TC-656 (Application for Utah title).  This form will cover your registration as well.
  • Some sort of proof of ownership, which can be a bill of sale, vehicle title, or previous registration.
  • Vehicle identification number (VIN) inspection.
  • Uniform property tax fee, which is based on age and ranges from $10 to $95.
  • Sales and use tax.
  • $24 registration fee and $6 title fee.
  • Odometer statement for motorcycles less than 10 years old.
  • One person whose name will appear on the new title.
