IRP Plate Transfer Services for Truckers
What Is an IRP Plate Transfer?
An IRP plate transfer allows you to move your apportioned license plate from one vehicle to another, without applying for a new plate. This is common when replacing trucks, upgrading equipment, or transferring ownership within your company.
When Should You Transfer Plates?
- When you sell or retire a vehicle and need to assign the IRP plate to a new unit
- When purchasing a new truck and want to keep your current plate
- When moving plates between vehicles under the same ownership
- To avoid IRP renewal fees for an unused vehicle
What’s Needed for a Plate Transfer
- Current IRP cab card showing plate information
- Title or lease agreement for the new truck
- Proof of insurance for the new vehicle
- Odometer reading for the new unit
- Updated 2290 Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (if required)
- DOT number and company address verification
