Motor
carriers, motor private carriers, freight forwarders,
leasing companies and brokers based in the United
States, Canada, Mexico, or any other country that
operate in interstate or international commerce in the
United States must register under the UCR program. For
the for-hire carriers, UCR replaced the Single State
Registration System (SSRS) program. SSRS was not
renewed for 2007. The UCR program is similar to SSRS in
that UCR is a Base-State system, under which a carrier
pays UCR fees through its Base State on behalf of all
participating states.
Entities
not required to register under the UCR program
include:
1. USDOT
registrants (usually owner-operators that do not have
interstate authority) under the PRISM
program.
2. Purely intrastate carriers,
that is, those that do not transport interstate freight
or cross state lines.
UCR fees
are based on the total number of vehicles operated by a
carrier. Note: effective April 28, 2010, the UCR Board of Directors has changed the state UCR fee schedule that was in effect for 2007, 2008 & 2009. Trailers are no longer counted as vehicles. The number of commercial motor vehicles for purposes of determining carrier UCR fees is the number of self-propelled commercial motor vehicles the carrier reported in the most recent Form MCS-150 filed with the FMCSA. Carriers must update their MCS-150 record at least every two years. You can call DOTAuthority.com at (888) 414-1874 to update your record.

Registrants will be issued a
receipt for the fees paid based on the total number of
vehicles indicated on the UCR application. This receipt
expires December 31, 2010. The issued receipt need
NOT be carried in vehicles nor displayed by the carrier
in any manner. Registration will be vaildated by way of
its linkage to your DOT/MC Number. Normally, Federal Law requires registration by December 31. The recent moratorium on 2010 enforcement expired on July 15, 2010. It is recommended DOTAuthority.com clients register IMMEDIATELY to avoid penalties that may be issued once now that enforcement has begun.
