Requirements:
Review Unified Carrier Registration Program (UCR)
Every entity subject to UCR is required to register annually with its base state and pay an annual fee to that state. In order for an operation subject to UCR to continue to operate legally, it must complete its UCR registration and pay its UCR fee before January 1 of the registration year. After that date, the registration fee is still due, but a non-registrant may then be subjected to state enforcement action.
Registration under UCR is relatively simple and can be completed online. The 2027 Registration Portal through the NRS opens October 1, 2026. For registration questions, please call 1-833-UCR-PLAN (1-833-827-7526) or email
