This bill amends the eligibility requirements for the permanent registration of trailers in Wyoming, specifically allowing for the permanent registration of trailers that qualify as commercial vehicles. It establishes a registration fee of $350 for these trailers and provides a fee exemption for permanently registered trailers. The bill also includes provisions for the transfer of ownership of permanently registered trailers, stipulating that the original owner must remove the license plate upon transfer, but may apply to transfer the registration number to a newly acquired trailer without incurring additional fees, provided the application is approved and the necessary fees are paid.

Additionally, the bill introduces new subsections to existing laws, detailing the process for permanent registration of commercial trailers and the issuance of distinctive license plates. It specifies that the permanent registration of a trailer cannot be transferred to a new owner, who will be subject to all applicable fees upon acquiring a trailer that was previously registered. The bill repeals a specific provision related to annual renewal and establishes that these changes will apply to trailers registered on or after July 1, 2025.
