Montana LLC RV and motorhome registration
Class A, B, and C coaches and fifth wheels titled to a Montana LLC, with permanent registration for older motorhomes.
Last updated October 1, 2026
You register an RV or motorhome through a Montana LLC the same way you register a car: the LLC becomes the titled owner and Montana levies no general sales tax. Class A, B, and C coaches and fifth wheels qualify, and motorhomes 11 years and older can register permanently with no annual renewal. Service starts at $749.
Permanent registration for older motorhomes
Montana registers motorhomes on an age-based fee schedule and offers one-time permanent registration once a motorhome is 11 model years and older, which is why full-time travelers favor it: one filing, no annual renewal. The RV is titled to your Montana LLC, and because Montana charges no sales tax the registration cost does not scale with the coach's value. Where you domicile and travel can still create a home-state obligation, so confirm your position before you register. Verify the current motorhome fees at mvdmt.gov.
How registration works from any state
You never visit Montana. We form the LLC, act as your Montana registered agent, title the rvs & motorhome to the LLC, and register it with a county treasurer; plates are couriered to you in 2 to 4 weeks. The full sequence is on our how it works page, and you can compare your home state's rate on our registration-by-state pages.
What it costs
Standard Registration starts at $749, plus the $35 Secretary of State filing fee, a Montana LLC from $150, and county title and plate fees passed through at cost. Montana charges 0% sales tax, so nothing scales with the vehicle’s value. See itemized pricing, and the full cost breakdown. Montana Plate Co. is a formation and registered-agent service, not a law firm or tax advisor; confirm your home-state use-tax position with a tax professional.

Tax, permanent plates, and cost for registering rvs & motorhomes through a Montana LLC.
Can I register a motorhome permanently in Montana?
Yes. Montana offers one-time permanent registration for motorhomes 11 model years and older, so you register once with no annual renewal. Newer motorhomes register on Montana's age-based fee schedule. The coach is titled to your Montana LLC; we quote the exact fee for your motorhome's age before you pay.
Does a Montana LLC work for a full-time RV?
It is a common choice for full-time RVers who have no fixed home-state base, because the RV is titled to the Montana LLC and Montana charges no sales tax. Your domicile and where you travel can still create obligations, so talk to a tax professional about your situation before registering.
