On October 1st, the 2022 Unified Carrier Registration officially opened!
It is important to note that there were no price adjustments from last year, so the amount will be the same depending on your fleet size!
What is Unified Carrier Registration?
In 2005, the Unified Carrier Registration Act (UCR) became the primary method when it comes to registering commercial vehicles that travel while using interstates.
If your company is required to file the UCR, you must register and pay the fee every year based on the size of your fleet.
To continue being able to legally operate on public interstates, the UCR must be completed along with the fee paid by December 31st, 2021
What Are The UCR Fees for 2022?
The UCR fees depend on the size of the fleet that is being registered. The chart below displays the filing fees:
How Do You Register for UCR?
To register for the UCR, you will need to go to https://www.ucr.gov/ and enter your USDOT number. Once you complete this step-by-step process and pay the fee, you’re all done for the 2022 period!
It’s important to have your USDOT number on hand to make this process quicker and easier. Any vehicle that transports cargo or passengers and meets any of the following requirements must have a USDOT number:
- Has a gross or combined weight of 10,001 lbs or more
- Transports 8 or more passengers for compensation
- Transports 15 or more passengers that are not for compensation
- Transports any hazardous materials
