Snowmobile registration in Maine is handled by the Maine Inland Fisheries & Wildlife and costs $55 per year.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to register a snowmobile in Maine?
Yes, for riding beyond your own property — Maine's program charges $55 per year. Check the notes for trail-pass requirements on top.
Is a trail pass the same as registration in Maine?
No — registration is the state's ownership/operation requirement, while trail passes or club fees fund groomed trail systems and are often charged separately. Many riders' biggest annual cost is the trail side, not the registration.
