Maine’s Online Boat Registration Renewal service
(www.maine.gov/online/boat) has been enhanced to adjust to any size
screen whether an individual is using the service on a smartphone,
tablet, laptop, or desktop computer.
The online service has been available through the Department of
Inland Fisheries and Wildlife (IF&W) and Maine.gov since 2009.
Over the past 7 years, the service has grown tremendously and there
are now over 180 municipalities throughout the State that utilize
the online renewal program. The service allows an individual to
register their boat with the state of Maine and pay their local
excise tax and registration fee in one seamless transaction via
credit or debit card. Following the transaction, the customer will
receive a temporary registration form to print for their immediate
use. The official registration and stickers will arrive at the
specified shipping address within 30 days.
“This service creates efficiencies for our agency, the
participating municipality, and the customer,” stated Bill Swan,
Director of Licensing for IF&W. “We want to make this service
as accessible as we can, and now that we are seeing more than 50%
of web traffic coming from a mobile device or tablet, this was
necessary to help us accomplish that goal.”
The Boat Registration Renewal service is available only to
registrants who have previously registered their boat in a
participating municipality, continue to live in or dock their boat
in that town/city, and are required to pay excise tax.
The online service was developed at no cost to Maine taxpayers
and was created by Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, in partnership
with the state’s eGovernment portal provider, InforME.
