Move an RV or Motorhome to Georgia
Register an out-of-state motorhome while keeping its title, insurance, license, tow vehicle, and trailer records separate.
Prepare the RV or motorhome before the office visit
The government instructions are free. We show a private provider only when it is authorized for this vehicle and task.
- 1. Check when the application becomes due
Register the motorhome within 30 days after moving to Georgia. Obtain a Georgia driver license or ID before visiting the County Tag Office.
- 2. Prepare the correct ownership record
Use Form MV-1 with the original out-of-state title or the accepted registration from a non-title jurisdiction. Add Form T-17 when a lender, security-interest holder, or leasing company holds the title.
- 3. Complete identification and inspection
Georgia exempts recreational vehicles and motorhomes from emissions testing for registration, including in the metro Atlanta emissions counties.
- 4. Register the correct vehicle class
Apply through the County Tag Office with the ownership record, Georgia identification, insurance evidence, and applicable title, registration, and tax amounts. Keep any towed vehicle or trailer on its own record.
Check the exact vehicle class
A noncommercial Class C license covers an RV equipped as temporary living quarters and used only for family or personal travel, regardless of its weight. Commercial or other use changes the license analysis.
Open the primary Georgia source before completing a form or paying a fee. The official agency decides which forms and checks apply to the specific vehicle.
