North Carolina Boat Registration

All boats must be registered with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. Boats over 14 feet and personal watercraft also require titling.[1]

The process for registration and titling is as follows:

  1. If the boat is previously titled, the owner must get the title assigned over to them from the previous owner with notarization. If the title is lost, they’ll need to obtain a signed and notarized Bill of Sale and Seller’s Statement of Lost Title Form from the seller.
  2. The new boat owner completes the VL-1 Form.
  3. The above documentation can be submitted (with payment for registration and titling fees) online, in person at to Wildlife Service Agent, or by mail to:

North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Transaction Management
1709 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1700
