Get Started With IRP Services

What Is the International Registration Plan (IRP)?

The International Registration Plan (IRP) is a registration agreement between participating U.S. jurisdictions and Canadian provinces. It allows qualifying commercial vehicles that travel across multiple jurisdictions to operate under an apportioned registration.

Instead of obtaining separate registrations for every state or province where your truck travels, IRP allows registration through your base jurisdiction, with registration fees apportioned according to the distance your vehicles travel in participating jurisdictions.

In simple terms, IRP helps interstate carriers manage their commercial vehicle registration through one coordinated registration system.

Who May Need IRP Registration?

IRP generally applies to qualifying commercial vehicles that operate in two or more IRP jurisdictions.

An apportionable vehicle commonly includes a commercial vehicle that:

  • Has two axles and exceeds 26,000 pounds gross or registered weight
  • Has three or more axles, regardless of weight
  • Is used in a combination where the combined gross or registered weight exceeds 26,000 pounds
  • Travels across state or provincial lines as part of interstate operations

Specific requirements and exemptions can vary by jurisdiction, so it is important to confirm your situation with the appropriate base-jurisdiction authority.

Not sure whether your truck needs IRP registration? EzBizz Solution can help you understand the requirements that apply to your operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
