Hello all,
I am looking to register a sled in Colorado but am a little confused as to the process and fees. I am from New York and bought a sled from a dealer here in NY but will be brining it to Colorado with me.
In New York, we have to pay sales tax on the purchase price (if you bought it for $8,000, you will pay around $700 in tax). Is this the same case in Colorado? Or do you just have to pay the $30.25 registration fee?
The sled is not in my name right now, as I am buying it used from a dealer. They are going to give me the NY registration (signed by the owner) and a bill of sale, but I don't want to register it in NY, as I will be paying a boat load in sales tax.
I did some research online and tried calling a few places but nobody wants to answer. It seems like I can register the snowmobile online just by sending the necessary paperwork to Colorado Parks & Wildlife, but I am wondering if that is only for "renewing" your registration, rather than actually transferring ownership of the snowmobile to me.
I really wish one of these places would answer their phone! :face-icon-small-did
Any input would be much appreciated! Anything about the overall registration/titling of a snowmobile in CO!
