Owning one in Chattahoochee County.
On your own land, yes
Owning a kei truck and working it on a ranch, a farm, a mine or private property does not depend on a road title. Some states still ask for a title or an off road registration.
A 25 year truck on the road
Closed to road use. Georgia will not title or register a kei truck at any age. O.C.G.A. 40-3-30(b) and 40-2-27(b) exempt a vehicle 25 years or older from the federal standards bar in their own subsection (a), but 40-3-30.1 defines a vehicle not built to the federal safety or emission standards as an unconventional motor vehicle with no age exception, and 40-3-30.1(f) says it shall not be titled or registered. The Department of Revenue applies that to kei trucks in Policy Bulletin MVD-2023-05: a truck imported under the 25 year box on the federal HS-7 cannot be titled and registered in Georgia, a title from another state is refused and titles issued in error are cancelled.
A newer governed truck
Private land only. None. MPOHVs are not titled, and no other off road title was found.

How to import a mini truck, step by step.
A newer off road truck never lands in California. It comes in through Tacoma or by way of Houston.
Trucks travel in containers, one to a 20 foot box with room for parts or three to a 40 foot box.
Road miles are an estimate, the straight line times 1.2.

Importing a kei truck
The essentials, in short.
A truck under 25 can come in only as governed off road equipment, and only if its engine family held an EPA nonroad certificate for that model year. No kei engine family was certified for mini trucks before model year 2010, so a truck built after 31 October 2001 and before model year 2010 has no federal door until its 25th birthday.
Two lanes
A road truck must be 25 years old by its own build date. A newer truck comes in only as governed off road equipment with a certified engine.
The 25 percent duty
Every kei truck pays the 25 percent truck duty at the port, whatever its age.
The paperwork
The customs entry and the two federal declarations, DOT Form HS-7 and EPA Form 3520-1, travel with the truck to your title office.
The title
Keep every stamped paper with the truck. Your state title office asks to see them.
