(625 ILCS 40/3-2) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 603-2)
Sec. 3-2. Identification Number Application. The owner of each snowmobile requiring numbering by this State shall
file an application for number with the Department on forms approved by
it. The application shall be signed by the owner of the snowmobile and
shall be accompanied by a fee of $30. When a snowmobile dealer
sells a snowmobile the dealer shall, at the time of sale, require the buyer
to complete an application for the registration certificate, collect the
required fee and mail the application and fee to the Department no later
than 15 days after the date of sale. Combination application-receipt forms
shall be provided by the Department and the dealer shall furnish the buyer
with the completed receipt showing that application for registration has
been made. This completed receipt shall be in the possession of the user
of the snowmobile until the registration certificate is received. No
snowmobile dealer may charge an additional fee to the buyer for performing
this service required under this subsection. However, no purchaser
exempted under Section 3-11 of this Act shall be charged any fee or be
subject to the other requirements of this Section. The application form
shall so state in clear language the requirements of this Section and the
penalty for violation near the place on the application form provided for
indicating the intention to register in another jurisdiction. Each dealer
shall maintain, for one year, a record in a form prescribed by the
Department for each snowmobile sold. These records shall be open to
inspection by the Department. Upon receipt of the application in
approved form the Department shall enter the same upon the records of
its office and issue to the applicant a certificate of number stating
the number awarded to the snowmobile and the name and address of the owner.
For the registration years beginning on or after January 1, 2017, the application shall be signed by the owner of the snowmobile and
shall be accompanied by a fee of $45. (Source: P.A. 96-1291, eff. 4-1-11; 97-1136, eff. 1-1-13.)
