We\u2019re sure you\u2019re going to love it. But, before you can get behind the wheel, you\u2019ll need to obtain a few permits. Let\u2019s begin with the IRP and determine whether it applies to your operation.<\/span><\/p>\n What is the IRP for trucking? The International Registration Plan is an agreement between the United States and Canada that allows qualifying vehicles to travel in two or more jurisdictions. If you will travel outside your home base of Minnesota, you will be required to obtain an IRP apportioned plate. Once you\u2019ve registered, the IRP office will distribute your paid fees among the jurisdictions on your route. <\/span><\/p>\n Before registering for your IRP plates, you need to know if you are required to obtain a USDOT number. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration uses the USDOT number to identify and monitor a carrier\u2019s safety information. More information about the USDOT requirements can be found <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Next, you must determine whether your vehicle qualifies for an IRP permit. A qualifying vehicle is one that:<\/span><\/p>\n You must also show that you have leased or own an established place of business in the state. The business must be a physical structure with a street address that operates during regular business hours. Employees must be engaged in performing duties related to your trucking business. All operational records pertaining to your business must be maintained at this location.<\/span><\/p>\n A Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) is required if your vehicle has a registered gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more. The IRS form 2290 is used to calculate the total road taxes due. <\/span><\/p>\n IRP Minnesota plates are valid for one year only. The prorate registration expires at 12:01 a.m. on March 2. There is no grace period; therefore the new cab card and registration stickers must be displayed by midnight March 1. <\/span><\/p>\n You\u2019ll receive a notification from the IRP office by the end of November. To ensure timely processing, it\u2019s essemtoa; to submit the renewal by January 15th. Late payments can result in fines or penalties. The <\/span>renewal application<\/span><\/a> can be submitted by mail, or you can <\/span>apply online<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Like most truckers, you didn\u2019t expect to spend quite so much time off the road filling out forms and logs.
