Your State DMV Shouldn’t Turn Your Dream Vehicle Into a Headache

Buying an RV, car, or trailer should be an exciting milestone—not a stressful, expensive ordeal.

But for many, the reality looks more like this:

  • Thousands lost to unnecessary sales tax

  • Unexpected inspections and compliance issues

  • Long, frustrating hours at the DMV

That’s why so many turn to Montana. But not all services are created equal.

We’ve spoken with clients who were overcharged for “rush processing,” hit with surprise fees, or billed premium legal rates without receiving real support.

We’ve seen it happen—and that’s exactly why we set out to build a better, more honest alternative.

Why clients choose us

We believe fast should be the baseline—not an upsell. Our process is designed for efficiency, with direct coordination inside Montana. No middlemen, no lag time. Once your documents are approved, plates can ship in as little as 3 business days. No “expedited” fees, no delays—just results.

Our total package is just $1,049—flat. While other companies advertise low upfront costs, they often hit you with hidden fees for your LLC, agent services, and “add-ons.” We don’t play that game. Our pricing is transparent, straightforward, and includes everything you need to register legally.

Whether you’re registering your first RV or adding a second collector car, our system grows with you. Your secure client portal makes it easy to add vehicles to your Montana LLC anytime—with just a few clicks. One account, endless flexibility.

Every LLC comes with a real Montana business address—not a rented mailbox or borrowed family home. It’s ideal for full-time RVers and remote vehicle owners who need a consistent, legal location for registration, insurance, banking, and more.

Our relationship doesn’t end after your registration is complete. Through your personalized client portal, you’ll always have access to your documents, deadlines, and registration status. And if you ever need help, you’ll speak with a real person—someone who’s processed thousands of Montana registrations just like yours.

Why Do So Many People Register Their Vehicles in Montana?

Because in most states, registering a vehicle is more complicated—and expensive—than it should be. Between high sales tax, hidden fees, emissions testing, and mandatory inspections, the process can quickly become a costly burden.

Montana provides a smarter alternative. It’s one of the few states that legally allows non-residents to form a Montana LLC and register their vehicles through it—with no sales tax, no smog checks, and no vehicle inspections required.

This isn’t about cutting corners—it’s about making informed decisions. With over 20 years of local experience and more than 100,000 successful registrations, we’ve helped clients save $5,000 to $15,000+, all while staying fully compliant with state law.

Montana is one of the few states that doesn’t charge sales tax on vehicles—regardless of value. And unlike states that hit you with annual property taxes based on your vehicle’s worth, Montana does not impose personal property tax on most vehicles.

The result? Thousands in savings—especially for high-value vehicles like exotic cars, RVs, and trailers. In high-tax states like California, New York, or Virginia, this often means $5,000 to $10,000+ back in your pocket.

Montana doesn’t require any emissions testing or vehicle inspections to register. That means no waiting in line, no risk of failure, and no surprise repairs. Many states—including California, New York, Colorado, Virginia, and Texas—require regular vehicle inspections, and emissions testing. These checks can be expensive, time-consuming, and stressful, especially if you own an older vehicle, an imported car, or a modified rig like a camper van, lifted truck, or custom motorcycle.

Montana is one of the only states in the U.S. that allows non-residents to form an LLC and register vehicles through it without ever setting foot in the state. That means you can legally form a Montana LLC and register your car, truck, SUV, RV, trailer, or motorcycle under that business, even if you live in another state. It’s a popular strategy for exotic car buyers, full-time RVers, and savvy vehicle owners looking to avoid high sales tax, emissions testing, and inspection requirements in their home state.

Montana offers permanent vehicle registration for eligible vehicles, including cars, pickups, SUVs, trailers, RVs, and motorcycles that are over 11 years old. Once registered, these vehicles never need to be renewed. You’ll never deal with yearly registration fees or paperwork again. This is a huge benefit for people who want long-term convenience and peace of mind, especially for secondary vehicles, collector cars, or tow vehicles.
