You
may have just received a letter regarding Unified Carrier Registration.
If you are an interstate carrier based in Kentucky and you have not
yet received your application, please monitor your mailbox or click
our link below for the printable application. Alternatively, you may
register for this credential online at the link below. Carriers that
are not based in Kentucky should file UCR with their base state or may
apply online as well.
It is important to note that not only interstate
for-hire carriers, but indeed ALL interstate carriers are affected by
this new program. This includes all
private interstate carriers (even farmers) and carriers previously listed
on the US DOT record as hauling ICC Exempt goods interstate. Also included
in UCRA are brokers, freight forwarders, and leasing companies. If you
are ALWAYS going to be leased on to someone else for authority, your
US DOT record should indicate that you are a Registrant and you
will NOT have to file for UCR.
The
UCR program will also not affect carriers that run intrastate only.
These intrastate,
non-hazmat carriers will still have to file for intrastate for-hire
authority if applicable. If you received the UCR letter in error because
of an incorrect US DOT record, you may update your US DOT number record
by completing the MCS-150
form.
The new program, Unified
Carrier Registration (UCR), was instituted due to the Unified
Carrier Registration Act (UCRA) of 2005. This program replaced Single
State Registration, which ceased to exist January 1, 2007. If you are
an interstate carrier that had Single State Registration in 2006, you
cannot renew Single State Registration for 2007 due to the replacement
of this program. Vehicle Enforcement has been notified of these changes
as well, and carriers should not be cited for not having the SSRS receipt
(RS-3) for 2007. Interstate
carriers will also not need to renew any intrastate for-hire authorities,
because this will also be covered under UCR for all interstate carriers.
***NOTE*** All other
credentials including fuel taxes (IFTA & KIT), KY Weight Distance
Tax (KYU) and IRP plates are still required. UCR does not affect these
credentials.
