IRP Renewal Services for Trucking Businesses
What Is IRP Renewal?
The International Registration Plan (IRP) is a cooperative agreement among U.S. states and Canadian provinces that allows commercial vehicles to operate across jurisdictions with a single plate and registration. Your IRP account must be renewed annually to keep your apportioned plates valid and avoid penalties or downtime.
Why Timely IRP Renewal Matters
- Avoid fines and enforcement actions from expired plates
- Maintain uninterrupted interstate operating authority
- Prevent registration holds and costly delays
- Stay compliant with your base state and IRP jurisdictions
What You’ll Need to Renew Your IRP Account
- Current cab card or prior IRP registration
- Truck title or valid lease agreement
- Proof of current commercial insurance
- Mileage from the previous reporting year (actual or estimated)
- DOT number and business address verification
- Federal Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (2290) proof of payment
