New York RV Registration Fee Calculator
RV registration in New York splits by type. Self-propelled motorhomes register like other motor vehicles — motorhomes hit the passenger weight cap: exactly $140 per 2 years for anything over 6,951 lbs — i.e., virtually all of them ($70/yr) — plus county use tax and MCTD fees where applicable. Towed travel trailers and campers run on a separate schedule: roughly $43 per year. Travel trailers: $5.39 per 500 lbs of max gross weight annually ($14.38 minimum, Dec 31 expiration; typical 4,000-lb trailer shown). Because motorhome MSRPs are large, value-based charges hit RVs harder than any other vehicle class.
