Boat sales tax question?

[Hookin8easy]

If you buy a boat out of state from private seller what does one need to expect to do for sales tax or licensing? Is it the same process as in state where it is just the GNF transfer cost??

You won't have to pay any sales tax if you buy it from a private seller.
Just type up a bill of sale for both of you to date and sign.
Take that along with the vin to the game and fish, should cost you around 30 bucks or so.:;:thumbsup

Right on, didn’t know if I’d get hit up for a surprise at licensing time, thanks.

Can mail it to GNF if you want to: https://gf.nd.gov/watercraft/registration
