Owners of motorboats, sailboats or personal watercraft who still need to get their free 2014-2017 validation decals for their watercraft can get them online from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks.
Boaters who have permanently registered their boats, sailboats, or PWC must obtain two free boat validation decals every three years at FWP regional and area offices, or by going to the FWP website at fwp.mt.gov; click Boat Validation Decals.
Owners who order validation decals on the FWP website will receive the decals in the mail. A current boat registration receipt issued by the county treasurer is needed to obtain the decals in person or on FWP’s website.
For new boat or PWC owners, the county treasurer’s office will provide the first set of validation decals when the watercraft is registered. Boat owners will obtain subsequent sets of validation decals at an FWP regional or area office, or online.
For more information, visit FWP’s webpage or call FWP at 406-444-2535.
