Team Kentucky is making it easier for boat owners to stay current on their vessel registrations with the launch of a new online renewal option on April 1, 2026. Boat owners can now skip a trip to their local County Clerk's office and renew their registration online to save valuable time.
"We're excited to give Kentucky boat owners even more choices this spring to spend less time in an office and more time enjoying the open waters," said Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Secretary Jim Gray. "This new boat renewal option expands our existing online vehicle registration service to give Kentuckians a more convenient way to be served."
Boat owners who prefer in-person service may still renew at their local County Clerk's office. To renew boat registration online and review more eligibility criteria, visit https://drive.ky.gov/Pages/Online-Registration-Renewal.aspx.
