What is the difference with the Montana LLC UTV service and the UTV street legal service?

Montana Registration

- No yearly plate renewals for motorcycles, ATVs, and UTVs. The plate is PERMANENT meaning no registration sticker is needed and neither are yearly renewals.

- There is an annual LLC renewal fee to keep the LLC active, which is generally $150

0% sales tax. If you have not paid sales tax on your vehicle, you will not have to pay any sales tax when registering in Montana.

- You cannot be financed, so the vehicle must be paid off. We will need the title.

- An LLC is mandatory in Montana unless you are a Montana resident.

- A Montana address will be provided for you at no extra cost

- If you have not paid sales tax and your vehicle purchase price or the NADA average retail value is $20,000 or more, the Montana plate will be cheaper.

- ATVs & UTVs will be registered as quadricycles

South Dakota Registration

- 4% sales tax on the vehicle purchase price or NADA average retail value, but only if at least 4% tax hasn't yet been paid to the dealership or your local DMV.

The registration must be renewed annually for around $69 per year, which can be done on our website.

- Registering a vehicle under an LLC instead of your name is optional if the vehicle isn't financed, but it does get you around the 30-60 day transfer rule, which is rarely enforced. The cost for us to set up an LLC is usually around $299.

The price is usually around $499 if you register in your name and $799 if you register under an LLC, compared to $1295 for Montana.

You can register using your home address or get an SD address by using America's Mailbox, but it is optional. 

- ATVs & UTVs will be registered as 4-wheel motorcycles

To insure a vehicle registered under an LLC, you will insure it in your name with a policy from your state, and you will add the LLC as an "Additional interest." No commercial policy is needed.
