New Mexico requires registration of commercial beehives depending on where 
the hives are and how many are in an apiary. If a beekeeper is north of I-
40 and has 15 or more colonies, they require you to register and pay a 
whopping $3.00 per location.

If you are south of I-40 and have 25 or more colonies, registration is 
required. (In no case is a commercial beekeeper required to pay more than 
$200, regardless of locations or numbers).

In 2006, the state registered 387 commercial apiary locations with 13,320 
hives and 15 commercial beekeepers.

We also have regulations for "organic" honey.
