Tennessee RV Registration Fee Calculator
RV registration in Tennessee splits by type. Self-propelled motorhomes register like other motor vehicles — motorhomes are classed with passenger vehicles (~$29/yr all-in at the clerk). Towed travel trailers and campers run on a separate schedule: roughly $14.5 per year. Hard-sided campers and fifth-wheels pay just $14.50/yr (Class D vacation trailer) — and pop-up/fold-down campers are exempt entirely, like utility trailers. County wheel taxes may apply. Because motorhome MSRPs are large, value-based charges hit RVs harder than any other vehicle class.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to register a motorhome in Tennessee?
Motorhomes follow Tennessee's regular vehicle fee system (motorhomes are classed with passenger vehicles (~$29/yr all-in at the clerk)) — use the calculator above with your RV's MSRP and weight. In value-based states a $150,000 Class A can cost several thousand dollars a year at first.
Do travel trailers register differently than motorhomes in Tennessee?
Yes — travel trailers are towed, unpowered vehicles and run on their own schedule (about $14.5 per year), separate from both motorhomes and small utility trailers.
