Which states require TC registration?

Registration not required in Maryland. And no sales tax in Delaware - best of both worlds in my case.

That list shows "titles and registers" for Arizona. I haven't done either for my camper. But my camper is from 1969 and since we are the original owners, I know they didn't require it back then.

I know for a fact that AZ does not require either, so I question the accuracy of Idaho's list.

They still don't Mike
In the states that do,where do the draw the line?
Are topper shells exempt?

Yes, topper shells are exempt. The line is drawn at units that are self-contained, meaning kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom facilities.

realter,

"What do they mean by registration?"

It's basically buying a new license or tags (stick on year color coded tags that show you have re-registered or paid the fee to use the roads etc to travel with the item for the present year time period). Registration of a TC, where required, is usually along the same lines as yearly etc re-registeriing a vehicle as in paying the fee or tax to use it on the roads and is reciprocal for usage in the other 49 states for traveling in but not if changing your residence to.

Some states use birthday dates of the owner as the yearly time period of re-registration. Some states use the date of first registration as the yearly date of renewal. Some states have a one time registration for as long as you own the non-motorized TC or RV or trailer etc. Some states do not require any registration at all or just a title of ownership. To apply for a title you must show that you have a bill of sale and paid the sales tax on the TC to the state you reside in with very few exceptions. Such as states with no sales tax or having purchased it from a direct family member.

Varies greatly and ONE has to be sure they know the law and requirements in the state they live in when buying a TC or RV and/or using it on the roads and if insurance etc is also required.

Wyoming No TC Registration.

The line is usually the same as defining a motorhome: Sleeping and cooking facilities,

Nothing required in VA. A TC is just like a load of firewood.
I really don't see how any other state's DMV can get away with requiring registration or tags. There's no motor and without wheels I don't see how it's a vehicle.

This, but it was not optional in my case.. The dealer forced it, to get the financing.

More than likely it was the bank that made the dealer do it. I think its a good idea to do it anyway.
