Requirements:

OHV (Off-highway vehicle) dealers and manufacturers must register with the DNR to operate machines for testing or demonstration purposes. A registration certificate and a registration plate will be issued. The registration certificate must be prominently displayed in the place of business.

A manufacturer's license is not necessary if ATVs are not in operation or use.

Manufacturers receive one plate with their license. Additional plates cost $4 plus filing fee per plate. 

The registration plate must be displayed on the vehicle before dealers or manufacturers may operate or permit operation of any off-highway vehicle they own or control.
