§ 18087 Out-Of-State Vehicle Registration

Key Takeaways

  • •If you move to this state with a mobile home, camper, or truck camper from another state, you must register it here.
  • •When you register, you have to tell the truth about where and when it was last registered before.
  • •You also need to give details like who registered it before and where it was first registered if you know.

Example

You buy a used camper in Arizona and move to California.

When you register the camper in California, you must say it was registered in Arizona before, give the date and place of that registration, and tell who did it (like the Arizona DMV). If you don’t, you could get in trouble.
