Utah OHV registration and permits help fund trail maintenance, safety programs, and enforcement efforts to protect Utah's off-road trails and public lands. By registering your OHV, you’re supporting responsible recreation and ensuring access to our scenic landscapes for generations to come.

All off-highway vehicles (OHVs) in Utah must display a current OHV registration sticker when operated or transported on public lands or roads. Off-highway motorcycles may be registered as street legal if they pass a safety inspection and have valid insurance.

OHV registrations expire annually on the last day of the month the OHV was purchased. As of January 1, 2023, all off-highway vehicles (excluding motorcycles and snowmobiles) must also display a license plate in addition to the registration sticker.
