TO: New Indiana IRP Motor Carrier Registrants
FROM: Motor Carrier Services Department, International Registration Plan (IRP)
RE: Notice of Understanding the IRP Requirements
Thank you for visiting our Motor Carrier Services Customer Service Center. To establish a new Indiana IRP account, you must acknowledge each item listed below. After you read and understand all the requirements for retaining your account, sign and date this form.
I understand that I am required to maintain accurate recordkeeping of mileage traveled in all jurisdictions for each vehicle. I also understand that IRP may require at any time that I present a quarter of mileage distance log books to ensure compliance.
I understand that I must keep my base state informed when I've changed the Motor Carrier Authority under which I travel so that I can update my IRP cab card(s).
I understand that Indiana IRP is continuous registration. I also understand that if I cancel my IRP account, the plate(s) must be returned before the start of my registration month to avoid being billed for the nonreturned, nonrenewed IRP plate(s).
I understand that if I reinstate my IRP account, I must show proof of previous registration and provide actual mileage for the timeframe being registered.
Under penalty of perjury, I have examined these requirements and understand the contents of this statement. I agree to adhere to these requirements, and my signature below indicates that I clearly acknowledge my responsibilities as an IRP account holder.
