of the county in which he resides or in which the vehicles are principally operated.
The application shall be retained by the clerk and shall be accompanied by:
(a) A manufacturer's certificate of origin, if the application is for the registration
of a new trailer, semitrailer, or recreational vehicle;
(b) The owner's registration receipt, if the trailer, semitrailer, or recreational
vehicle was last registered in this state;
(c) A bill of sale and the previous registration receipt, if last registered in another
state that does not require the owner of a trailer, semitrailer, or recreational
vehicle to obtain a certificate of title or ownership;
(d) A certificate of title, if last registered in another state that requires the owner
of a trailer, semitrailer, or recreational vehicle to obtain a certificate of title or
ownership;
(e) An affidavit from the owner of a trailer, semitrailer, or recreational vehicle
assembled or constructed for his personal use on the highways; or
(f) An affidavit from the owner of a trailer, semitrailer, or recreational vehicle
where the bill of sale for the vehicle has been lost, destroyed, or stolen.
The affidavit required in paragraph (e) of subsection (1) of this section shall contain
the owner's name, address, date, brief description, and a statement that the trailer
was constructed by the owner for use on the highways and additional information
the cabinet may require by administrative regulation promulgated pursuant to KRS
