Selling a snowmobile in New York: what to know

New York is one of the few snow states that runs sleds through the DMV rather than a parks agency. Snowmobiles are registered annually with the New York DMV, there is no title for them, and the DMV wants proof of ownership at transfer. That proof is the bill of sale, and New York even has an official one: form MV-912.

Our generator auto-fills the official MV-912 for you on the last step when New York is selected. One extra New York wrinkle worth knowing: liability insurance is required to ride anywhere except your own property, so the buyer should sort a policy before the first ride.

New York snowmobile bill of sale: FAQ

Do snowmobiles have titles in New York?
No. They are registered annually with the DMV without a title, so the bill of sale (ideally the official MV-912) is the key transfer document.
Can I use form MV-912 for a snowmobile?
Yes. MV-912 is the NY DMV’s standard vehicle bill of sale and is used for snowmobile sales. Select New York in the generator above and it fills the official PDF automatically.
Does the buyer need insurance?
Yes. New York requires liability insurance to operate a snowmobile anywhere other than the owner’s own property.
Is club membership worth it?
Registering costs less with membership in a NYSSA-affiliated snowmobile club, and most of the trail network is maintained by the clubs, so many riders join.
