UCR fee calculator.
The Unified Carrier Registration fee depends on how many commercial motor vehicles you own or operate. Pick a year and enter your count to see the bracket and the fee, and how it changes for 2027.
A one-truck carrier pays $46.00 for the 2026 registration year and $55.00 for 2027, a $9.00 increase. Two trucks pay the same, because the smallest bracket covers 0 to 2 vehicles.
