RP Plating Services By TRC Solutions
At TRC Solutions, we provide expert International Registration Plan (IRP) plating services to motor carriers operating across multiple jurisdictions in the United States and Canada. Our service ensures that your fleet remains compliant with the IRP agreement, which facilitates the equitable collection and distribution of registration fees based on distance traveled in each jurisdiction.
What is the International Registration Plan (IRP)?
The IRP is a cooperative agreement among the 48 contiguous U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and 10 Canadian provinces. It allows commercial motor carriers to register their vehicles in a single base jurisdiction while legally operating in multiple jurisdictions. The fees are then apportioned based on the percentage of miles traveled in each area
