Alabama RV Registration Fee Calculator
RV registration in Alabama splits by type. Self-propelled motorhomes register like other motor vehicles — motorhomes have their own gross-weight schedule from $23 up to $890 for the heaviest coaches (typical Class C shown). Towed travel trailers and campers run on a separate schedule: roughly $12 per year. Travel trailers pay the $12 private trailer rate plus county ad valorem tax at renewal. Because motorhome MSRPs are large, value-based charges hit RVs harder than any other vehicle class.
