Title & Registration

Notarization ensures the person signing a document is properly identified, that they’re signing the document under their own free will, and to be able to independently verify the transaction at a later time.    

We always offer in-house notary, but if you are unable to come into the office, we can come to you. Please give us a call to discuss your notary needs!

Pennsylvania’s Department of Conservation and Natural Resources requires all ATVs and Snowmobiles to be registered and titled. 

The type of registration you need depends on where you plan to ride your ATV/Snowmobile: 

Active Registration — (Operating vehicle off your own personal property). 

• You will receive a registration plate, an expiration sticker, and a Certificate of Registration wallet card.

Limited Registration — (Limited to operating vehicle on land owned/leased by owner/operator of vehicle).

• You will receive a registration plate and a card, but no expiration sticker.

In Pennsylvania, registration is not required for: 

• ATVs used exclusively as utility vehicles for agricultural or business operations. 

• ATVs owned by nonresidents covered by a valid registration in their state, province, or country that honors Pennsylvania registration. 

• ATVs owned and used by a federal, state, or local government body. 

• ATVs owned by a dealer who has been issued a dealer registration certificate and used only in connection with the dealer’s business.

 All motorboats are required to be registered.  

Motorboat registration or titling is similar to registering or titling a car. Boat registrations and titles are issued by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission.

Give us a call to find out if your boat needs to be registered or titled.

Unpowered boats need to be properly registered or display a valid Commission or DCNR launch permit to use Commission lakes or access areas, PA state parks and PA state forests. If your boat is registered, renewal reminders make it easy to keep your boat up to date. Registration helps in recovering a lost or stolen boat; launch permits do not. 

• Every state recognizes a valid PA boat registration. Launch permits may not be accepted in all states.  

All kayaks and canoes launched in Pennsylvania state parks and forests must display one of the following:

• Boat registration from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission
• Launching permit from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission
• Launching permit or mooring permit from Pennsylvania state parks — available at most state park offices
• Paddlers must abide by both the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission’s boating regulations and the regulations of the state park or forest district in which you are boating.

A notary signing agent is a notary public who works directly with lending institutions, title companies, signing services, and other companies that need the services of a notary public who is familiar with loan closing documentation and who is responsible and qualified to handle the special types of notarial acts required of such transactions.
