Are you actually required to register a private snow cat?

Can you simply call it an agricultural vehicle and put a "SMV" triangle on the back?

I was NOT required to register mine when I imported it from England.

I simply filled out the import papers as a snow "tractor" and called it 'agricultural equipment.' I put a "slow moving vehicle" triangle on it. Drove it on the (snow covered) roads without any issue from public or police. Being an 'Agricultural tractor' with a "SMV" triangle, it was treated as a curiosity. People, including police, wanted photos with it, but nobody 'questioned' the Snow Trac.

Not as a tractor but more likely as an off road vehicle or atv.

Where are you driving it? It technically only needs to be registered if it's drove on roads or public property, if it's just on your property you don't need to.

I have registered some cats over the years, it makes it easier to get insurance and a lot cheaper. The frustrating part is it changes with every different person you deal with, yesterday I had an insurance agent tell me I needed the import permit from 1963 when it was brought in by Canadian national railway, I laughed. I will try again today, we’ll see
