Wyoming Boat Registration Fee Calculator
In Wyoming, boat registration is handled by the Wyoming Game & Fish (titles via county clerk) and renews annually. The fee is a flat $40 per year. Non-motorized craft like kayaks and canoes are generally exempt (check local rules for sailboats). Boats with motors — including trolling motors on otherwise unpowered craft — almost always require registration.
