Seamless US vehicle ownership for Americans living abroad

By registering your vehicle in Montana, you avoid high sales taxes and inconvenient vehicle inspections, while enjoying the comfort of a car set up just the way you like it.

Our streamlined service takes care of your Montana vehicle registration - even if you or the vehicle that you buy never come to Montana - so you can focus on enjoying your time in the U.S.

HOW IT WORKS

This Is How Easy US Vehicle Ownership Can Be

In the USA, vehicle ownership is governed by states, and Montana has the best combination of laws. Low registration fees. 0% sales tax (in most situations). No US driver’s license requirement. No emissions tests. And the car doesn’t have to be in Montana–or ever go there. It just takes 3 simple steps:

1
visitor.us forms a Montana company, owned 100% by you, giving you a presence in the best US state to own a vehicle
2
You buy a vehicle - any vehicle with US ownership documents, anywhere you want - in the name of your Montana company
3
visitor.us registers your vehicle to your company, and sends your registration, license plates, and title to a location that’s convenient to you

Coming soon - personal registration!

Register your vehicle directly in your own name, without forming a Montana company.

montana registration benefits

Flexibility and savings with a Montana vehicle registration

Non-US residents aren't required to register vehicles in any specific US state - so why bother with local sales taxes, drivers license, residency, and inspection requirements, and complicated paperwork?

Let visitor.us register your vehicle in Montana, the best US state to own a vehicle.

0% sales tax

Sales tax is due where you register a vehicle, not where you buy it. Montana's 0% sales tax can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars.

No US driver’s license or residency required

Living abroad? No problem. With visitor.us, you can register your vehicle in Montana without needing a U.S. address, driver’s license, or state residency.

No vehicle inspections required

Montana has no vehicle inspection requirements, so you never need to bring your vehicle to the state. Buy anywhere, register with visitor.us, and you're good to go.

Easy transfer when you move back to the US

When you're ready to return to the US, transferring your vehicle to your new state of residency is simple with visitor.us.
