All jurisdictions have agreed to allow one (1) member-jurisdiction to collect the registration fees, apportioned fees, for each member-jurisdiction at one time. These fees are then divided among the other IRP member-jurisdictions according to:

• Percentage of mileage traveled in each jurisdiction;

• Vehicle identification information; and,

• Maximum weight.

IRP is specific in requiring all jurisdictions who are members of IRP to comply with the following three (3) basic principles:

• A single registration license plate;

• A single registration card (cab card); and,

• Allowing registrants to perform both interstate and intrastate vehicle movements.

Apportioned Registration Does Not:

• Waive or exempt a truck operator from obtaining operating authority from any state that the apportioned vehicle travels; or,

• Waive or exempt the payment of the Federal Heavy Vehicle Use Tax or Motor Fuel Tax in any state; or,

• Permit exceeding the maximum length, width, height, axle limitations; or,

• Permit violation of any "bridge law", oversize permit, proof of ownership, insurance requirements or motor vehicle ad valorem tax requirements in Georgia and other states.

Definition:

IRP: IRP is the abbreviation for the International Registration Plan. IRP is a special plan or a reciprocity agreement between member-states and member-jurisdictions for registering vehicles that must travel in two (2) or more member-states with one member-state, the member-state where the vehicle is based. A jurisdiction may be a State or a Canadian Province. The base member-state issues one apportioned license plate and cab card for each vehicle.
