Notice To All Interstate Motor Carriers and Motor Private Carriers

If you operate a truck or bus in interstate or international commerce the federal Unified Carrier Registration Agreement (UCR) applies to your business.

The UCR requires individuals and companies that operate commercial motor vehicles in interstate or international commerce to register their business with New Hampshire and pay an annual fee based on the size of their fleet.

For purposes of determining fees, a "commercial motor vehicle" is defined as a self-propelled vehicle used on the highways in commerce principally to transport passengers or cargo, if the vehicle:

  • has a gross vehicle weight rating or gross vehicle weight of at least 10,001 pounds, whichever is greater; or
  • is designed to transport more than 10 passengers, including the driver; or
  • is used in transporting hazardous materials in a quantity requiring placarding.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

If you operated in 2023 and did not register for the UCR, please call our office for instructions (603) 271-2311.

Please read our 2024 UCR Industry NoticeAdobe Acrobat Reader Symbol for more detailed information on the NH UCR Registration Process.
