How to Register a Vehicle

Visit a registration office at a New Jersey MVC facility that is suitable for you and bring the following required documents:

  • Bill of Sale: Required if the vehicle was purchased at auction and is non-titled. Otherwise, it’s helpful.
  • Completed Vehicle Registration Application (Form BA-49)
  • Driver’s License or Other ID
  • Lien Holder Information and Financing Statement: Required if the vehicle is leased or financed.
  • New Jersey Insurance Card or Insurance Company Name and Policy Number

Out-of-State Purchase

  • Application for Certificate of Ownership: Required if the vehicle is transferred from another state.
  • Seller’s Notarized Statement & Last Registration Card: Required if the vehicle is transferred from a state that does not issue titles and must include the year manufactured, make, VIN, and selling price.

Notes

  • New Jersey says to schedule an appointment for a new title or registration, and notes no walk-ins.

How to Register a Boat

New Jersey requires power vessels to be registered, and vessels over 12 feet generally must be titled unless exempt. Initial boat title and registration transactions are handled through a New Jersey MVC motor vehicle agency. Boats must be titled within 10 working days of purchase to avoid a penalty. To register a vessel, visit an MVC near you with the following items:

  • Boat Registration Application (Form BA-51)
  • Certificate of Documentation or deletion papers, if the vessel is or was documented with the U.S. Coast Guard.
  • Lienholder information, if the boat is financed.
  • Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin, title, or other accepted proof of ownership.
  • Notarized Bill of Sale, if the vessel came from a state that does not title boats.
  • Payment for title and registration fees.
  • Proper identification, such as a New Jersey driver’s license, non-driver ID, passport, or birth certificate.
  • Universal Title Application (Form OS/SS-UTA)

Out-of-State Purchase

  • Out-of-state title, properly assigned, if the boat came from a title state.
  • U.S. Coast Guard documentation, if the vessel was federally documented.
