Description

Oregon-based companies operating trucks and buses across state lines, may register with the Oregon Department of Transportation, Commerce and Complaince Division to pay apportioned registration fees.

Apportioned registration is a registration reciprocity agreement under the International Registration Plan (IRP) among all states of the U.S., District of Columbia and provinces in Canada. Exceptions include Alaska, Hawaii, Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Yukon.

Vehicles that operate in more than one jurisdiction (state or province) must obtain either permanent or temporary registration in each of those jurisdictions. A carrier can apply for permanent registration under the IRP. This type of registration is referred to as Apportioned registration and is obtained annually.
Oregon collects all registration fees, allocates the fees to the various jurisdictions and audits the companies for accuracy.

A carrier will likely need to apportion any vehicle that is used or is intended for use in two or more jurisdictions and is used for the transportation of property or persons For-Hire and is:
- A power unit having two axles with Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 26,000 pounds or more.
- A power unit having three or more axles regardless of weight; or
- Used in combination (pulling a trailer), when the weight of such combination exceeds 26,000 pounds GVW.

Vehicles or combinations having a GVW of 26,000 pounds or less may still obtain IRP registration.
