Virginia RV Registration Fee Calculator

RV registration in Virginia splits by type. Self-propelled motorhomes register like other motor vehicles — motorhomes pay exactly the passenger rate: $30.75/yr ($35.75 over 4,000 lbs). Towed travel trailers and campers run on a separate schedule: roughly $30.75 per year. Travel trailers with living quarters pay a flat $30.75/yr (their own line — not the utility trailer tiers). Local personal property tax on the RV's value applies to both types. Because motorhome MSRPs are large, value-based charges hit RVs harder than any other vehicle class.
