Vessel
(Boat) & Watercraft Registration Fees (fees
determined by boat length)
- The 12-month registration period begins
the first day of the owner’s
birth month. Company owned vessels (boats) or watercrafts use the month
of June. Per Florida Statute, vessel (boat) or watercraft registrations
are not prorated, therefore, the full annual registration fee applies.
- Biennial (extended) registrations can be processed on qualifying vessels (boats) during an original registration or during any transaction where the registration is being renewed. For inquiries on qualifying vessels (boats) please contact the Indian River County Tax Collector’s office.
- Warning:
Operation of a motorized vessel (boat)
or watercraft without a current registration can subject the operator
to a non-criminal infraction citation.
