Arkansas Boat Registration Lettering

In Arkansas there are specific state requirements for displaying registration numbers. We have given you the information you need below in order to design the proper size, color, and font. The DNR has no mercy for the absence of numbers and will also cite improper display!

General information about numbers

We'll guide you through the process of creating Arkansas boat numbers when you click design now. Each state has specific verbiage as to their requirements. See the Arkansas specific section below. The general requirements for boat registrations numbers are as follows:

  • A minimum of 3" letter height
  • A block style font such as (impact or arial black)
  • Generally located on the forward hull portion of the boat next to the DNR tag
  • A contrasting color to base color of your boat.
  • Letters separated by a space or a dash (-)

Arkansas Specific Registration Laws

Please review your state specific requirements before purchasing identification decals as they do vary from state to state. Our designer is setup to comply with the general requirements above. If you require a specific requirement not in our designer, just leave a comment at checkout and we'll adust your design (no big deal!). We are providing a link to the official state of Arkansas identification number guidelines Here.

Placement Information

Arkansas specifies that boat numbers be placed on the forward portion of the boat (the bow) on both sides.

Fantastic look, excellent quality, easy to apply. Directions & videos easy to follow & accurate. I installed doomed lettering standing in the water with just painters tape & scraper tool. Of course after wiping the surface with glass cleaner , but shouldn’t you already have that on the boat? Highly recommended!!
