HB 775 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to motor vehicle licenses

HB 775 modifies Missouri's motor vehicle registration fees based on vehicle type and horsepower. It establishes new fee tiers (e.g., $18 for vehicles under 12 horsepower, $51 for over 72 horsepower) and sets a $10 annual fee for motorcycles, motortricycles, and autocycles. The bill also includes a specific transition rule allowing autocycles registered as motorcycles before August 2018 to retain that classification until their current registration expires. These changes directly affect all Missouri vehicle owners who pay registration fees, with the most immediate impact on motorcycle owners and owners of higher-horsepower vehicles.
