ALBANY — New York State Department of Motor Vehicles wants to remind New Yorkers that snowmobile registrations must be renewed annually.

The DMV allows snowmobilers to renew registrations online on the DMV website, by mail or in person at a DMV office, according to a press release.

All snowmobiles operated in New York must be registered and marked with a validation sticker. Riders who complete a registration online can print a temporary certificate, which is valid for 15 days.

The DMV generates a permanent registration and mails it to the recipient along with their validation sticker. There is no additional charge for the temporary certificate.

Non-New Yorkers who wish to ride in New York State can register a snowmobile if it is already registered in their home state.

They can use the NYS Registration for Out-of-State Snowmobile service to get the 15-day registration and operate their snowmobile here immediately. DMV will send a permanent registration in the mail.
