Renew your boat registration

When to renew

All boat registrations expire on June 30th. You can renew your boat registration up to 6 months before June 30th.

You won’t get a renewal notice for your boat in the mail. But if you sign up to get email reminders for your boat, we’ll send you an email before your decals are due. If you want a reminder for your trailer, too, choose “Sign up a vehicle” and type in your trailer information.

How to renew

• Renew online.
• Renew in person at your local vehicle/boat licensing office. An additional service fee may apply.
• Renew by mail. If you are signed up to get email renewal reminders, you may renew by printing the email reminder you received and mailing it to any vehicle/boat licensing office with a check or money order for the fees.

Requirements

When you renew, you’ll be required to:

• Pay all fees related to the renewal of your boat decals and registration. To see how much your decals will cost when you renew, see Calculate your boat registration fees.
• If renewing in person, provide the boat registration or registration number (WN#).
• If renewing in person, present identification to show you are the registered owner of the boat. For a list of exceptions, contact your local vehicle/boat licensing office.
• Meet any other requirements that apply.

Change of address

It is important to keep your address updated with us. If you need to change the address on record for your boat, you must visit a vehicle/boat licensing office in person. You can’t change the address for your boat record online or by mail.
