Form ITD 3402 is used in Idaho for the inspection and verification of the Hull Identification Number (HIN) on a watercraft or vessel. The main purpose of this form is to ensure the accurate identification and documentation of watercraft for registration and titling purposes.

The form consists of sections where the inspector provides information about themselves, including their name, address, contact details, and qualifications as an authorized HIN inspector. It also requires them to provide details about the watercraft being inspected, such as the make, model, length, propulsion type, and existing HIN if applicable.
