I believe that's only for boat, utility, etc trailers

Also, if travel trailer is shorter than 16ft hitch to rear bumper.

The following statement is copied from the DMV policy for registration.

"If you have moved out of California and received a renewal notice, simply write on the notice that you are no longer in California AND provide the date that you moved out of state and mail it back to DMV. Your record will be updated with the new information when DMV receives the notice. Failure to do so will not stop any collection efforts, up to or including, wage garnishments or bank levies."

If that does not eventually do the trick, I would summarize the situation in a letter, or email, and send it to the governor, and my legislators in the form of a request for assistance or complaint against the DMV.

If you tell Cal DMV it is destroyed, they will cancel registration. However, if you cannot return plates and title, they will charge a fee.

This is what I did with a boat that was never to return to the states. Also, if at first you don't succeed, try again. You just have to get the right person at DMV. I got it done on the second try...

I keep my trailer registered. Went back and forth about this a few years and decided if and when I do return it to the US this is the only way to do it. As mentioned before, CA does not allow a travel trailer to go the non-op route. So...if you ever plan to return north it will be a PIA to re-register, as near as I can tell. The other issue I've heard of is local officials going around campos and searching for US travel trailers without plates and/or updated tags. Anyone know about that?
