WHAT IS AN IRP AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
IRP stands for International Registration Plan, a cooperative agreement for registering vehicles that travel into two or more jurisdictions. The IRP provides for payment of licensing fees based on fleet miles operated. Although license fees are paid to the base jurisdiction and distributed to various jurisdictions in which fleet vehicles are operated, only one set of license plates and one cab card are issued for each fleet vehicle. Under the IRP, interstate carriers must file application with the jurisdiction in which they are based. The apportioned plates, stickers and cab card are registration credentials you need to verify and validate registration.
