How Much Does It Cost to Register a Boat in Wyoming?
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.
Cost by boat size
| Boat | Per year | One-time (title etc.) |
|---|---|---|
| 14-ft motorboat | $40.00 | $15.00 |
| 20-ft motorboat | $40.00 | $15.00 |
| 28-ft motorboat | $40.00 | $15.00 |
| Kayak/canoe (no motor) | Free — exempt from registration | |
- Itemized: $30 registration + $10 resident motorized AIS decal (a 3-year registration is $80). The Commission approved raising the AIS decal to $20 resident / $50 nonresident — likely for 2027 decals.
- Motorized boats only; they must also be titled ($15 at the county clerk).
