New Mexico Snowmobile Registration Fee Calculator
Snowmobile registration in New Mexico is handled by the NM MVD (Game & Fish OHV program) and costs $50 per 2-year cycle. Like most snow states, registration is generally required for riding on public lands and trails, with your own property exempt — and trail passes or club memberships are often a separate (sometimes larger) cost than the registration itself.
