How to license your trailer - Canada

When you purchase your trailer, you will receive:

  1. a) a NVIS (New Vehicle Information Sheet), that must be signed by the retailer you purchased it from
  2. b) an owner’s manual
  3. c) a warranty card, and
  4. d) a bill of sale.

Since regulations and fees surrounding trailer registration vary from province to province, we recommend that you contact your local Ministry of Transportation (MOT) office. In most cases, when trailer registration is required, you will need to present the NVIS form and bill of sale at the MOT to do so.
