UCR fees to decline by 27%

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration announced that fees for Unified Carrier Registration Plan will be
reduced 27% next year.

The 2023 UCR fees will be reduced for companies with up to two power units from the current $59 to $43. For companies with 1,001 or more units, fees will drop from the current $56,977 to $41,627.

The UCR requires people and companies that operate commercial motor vehicles in interstate or international
commerce to register businesses with a participating state and pay an annual fee based on the size of your fleet. It
was created in 2005, and 41 states, including Arkansas, participate in the UCR agreement. The participating states
receive a portion of the $100 million collected annually for safety enforcement programs.
