UCR, Every Year
Unified Carrier Registration is a yearly fee for companies that operate across state lines. Nobody sends you a reminder. It's easy to forget until an officer at a scale checks it.
We file your UCR in the right fleet-size bracket, pay it and keep the receipt on file. Then we do it again next year.
Who Has To Register
If you operate in interstate commerce, UCR applies to:
- For-hire motor carriers
- Private carriers hauling their own goods across state lines
- Freight brokers and freight forwarders
- Leasing companies
2027 UCR Fees
FMCSA raised UCR fees by an average of 20% for 2027. Registration for 2027 opens October 1, 2026.
| Trucks owned or operated | 2026 | 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| 0 – 2 | $46 | $55 |
| 3 – 5 | $138 | $167 |
| 6 – 20 | $276 | $333 |
| 21 – 100 | $963 | $1,163 |
| 101 – 1,000 | $4,592 | $5,548 |
| 1,001 and up | $44,836 | $54,165 |
Brokers and leasing companies pay the lowest fee ($55 for 2027) no matter how big they are.
Your bracket is based on how many trucks you own or operate. Your truck count on the MCS-150 should match. If your fleet grew or shrank, fix that first.
