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 replaces 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. The number of commercial motor vehicles for purposes determining carrier UCR fees, is the number of commercial motor vehicles the carrier reported in the most recent Form MCS-150 filed
with the FMCSA.

Adjustments due, if any, will be made upon finalization of the UCR fee rule. Normally, Federal Law requires registration by December 31; however, a moratorium on enforcement has been issued. It is recommended DOTAuthority.com clients pre-register to ensure adequate processing time once the moratorium is lifted.
