Relating to the registration fee for certain trailers, travel trailers, and semitrailers.
HB 4472 increases the annual registration fee for certain trailers, travel trailers, and semitrailers in Texas from $20 to $45. This change directly affects owners of these vehicles weighing 6,000 pounds or less who register them in Texas. The bill amends the Transportation Code to set the new fee amount, effective September 1, 2025, for registrations applied for on or after that date. The policy change applies only to new registrations after the effective date, not to existing registrations.
