    The VT DMV website has definitely been updated, I didn’t have to fill out any out of state forms.

    As of July 6, they no longer allow out of state registrations.

    Ah. My unused ski condo address pays off again. I could never find a way to register anything as an out of state resident anyway, no mass insurer would cover me for a vehicle registered out of state so I just used the condo to get everything done.

    Well that sounds like a money making opportunity, I have a feeling you're about to have a lot of short term roommates....

    Lol. I don't even think that address really matters. Vermont has never asked for more than just the address, every piece of mail they do send goes directly to an out of state address. It only matters for insurance, for me anyway. I have no idea how out of state people are able to register a vehicle and get insurance without a vt address.

    Not sure why insurers care. If the vehicle is actually in VT their risk is probably lower. If it's not, and you listed the garaging address "incorrectly" it gives them an excuse to weasel out of paying you. They seem perfectly happy to separate people from their money in every other situation.

    I guess my next no title bike will be registered in South Dakota. Not exactly sure how well that works, but it will be fun to figure out. After that, maybe paying the stupid MA bonded title fees will be all that's left.

    VT didn't care that you were out of state. It was right on their DMV website. You didn't need residency.

    Insurance never asks because you insure before getting registered in and in your insurance paperwork you promise to be 3 things, Have residency, insurance and registration all in the same state.

    You're. Insurers don't really "care" because you're the one breaking rules by insuring something out of your state of residency and having a registered vehicle in a difference state than your residency. They have rights do deny you.


    This loophole was somewhat useful to wash titles but not to maintain a registration... legally of course. If you don't care for insurance then so be it. I've been saying this for many years.

    I was able to insure in RI, and register in Vt when I titled an 07 R1 in Vt. I had Foremost insurance, it was written in my policy where the bike was kept, and where it was registered. This policy also had trackday coverage, which most say doesn’t exist.

    I’m going to guess that unless you have a Vt license, your Vt address is going to be useless as of July 6th.

    If I have a vehicle jointly registered with a Vermont
    resident but I live out of state, do I need the Out of
    State Registration Certification form?

    The loophole still exists if you have a VT resident you trust to co-register with .

    Many years ago, my brother (who lives in Vermont)used to put me and used my address on his sled registrations so he could get a resident registration, that was reciprocal with Maine & Que, non resident were not reciprocal. But that was ages ago, like 6 life times

    Has anyone sold something with an out of state vt reg ? Did it transfer to the new owner without issue?

    It's fine. All states have to honor it.
