How difficult is it in Arizona to register an off highway Baja bug to make it street legal with a license plate? Current registration is California green sticker.
 
Key word RESIDENT, CA go away!

Key Registration Choices for Arizona Residents:
Arizona Department of Transportation (.gov) +2
  • Exclusively Off-Highway (Reduced Tax):
    • Designed for vehicles used only on dirt roads, trails, and non-maintained areas.
    • Requires the $25 OHV Decal.
    • Provides a reduced Vehicle License Tax (VLT) of $3, often saving on registration fees.
  • Primarily Off-Highway (Dual-Use):
    • Designed for vehicles used mostly off-road but needing to connect trails via paved/maintained roads.
    • Requires the $25 OHV Decal and standard registration.
    • Vehicles must be street-legal (mirror, horn, license plate light, etc.).
  • Primarily On-Highway:
    • Standard vehicle registration for vehicles used mostly on roads.
    • No OHV decal is required, but it does not allow for the reduced $3 VLT.
      Arizona Department of Transportation (.gov) +4
Non-Resident Options:
Arizona Department of Transportation (.gov) +3
  • Non-Resident OHV Decal: If your home state does not allow street-legal status, you can buy a $15-$25 Non-Resident OHV Decal to operate on Arizona trails.
  • Arizona Street-Legal Registration: Non-residents can make their OHV "street-legal" in Arizona if they have a "domicile" (second home/property) in AZ.
  • 30-Day Permit: Short-term visitors can apply for a 30-day permit if the OHV is titled in their home state.
 
I guess I should have said my friend in Phoenix bought a car in New Mexico that had ca green sticker. He wants to be street legal in Ca, Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada. Is the dual purpose plate ok in those states on the streets? Wants to tow it behind his Motorhome.
 
I think if it's street legal in CA, it's street legal anywhere.
