When is UCR due?
UCR is an annual registration, done with your base state. The UCR Plan says an operation subject to UCR must complete its registration and pay its fee before January 1 of the registration year — for 2027, that means before January 1, 2027. The 2027 registration portal opened October 1, 2026.
Missed the date? The fee is still due after January 1, and a carrier that hasn't registered may face state enforcement action. Register and pay as soon as you can.
How to register
Register and pay on ucr.gov, the UCR registration site. This calculator only shows the fee; it doesn't register you or take payment. Check the fee table on plan.ucr.gov before you pay.
