Sec. 367.5  Registration receipts.

    (a) On compliance by a motor carrier with the annual or supplemental 
registration requirements of Sec. 367.4, the registration State must 
issue the carrier a receipt reflecting that the carrier has filed the 
required proof of insurance and paid fees in accordance with the 
requirements of that section. The registration State also must issue a 
number of official copies of the receipt equal to the number of motor 
vehicles for which fees have been paid.
    (1) The receipt and official copies must contain only information 
identifying the carrier and specifying the States for which fees were 
paid. Supplemental receipts and official copies need contain only 
information relating to their underlying supplemental registrations.
    (b) Receipts and official copies issued pursuant to a filing made 
during the annual registration period specified in Sec. 367.4(b)(2) must 
be issued within 30 days of filing of a fully acceptable registration 
application. All other receipts and official copies must be issued by 
the 30th day following the date of filing of a fully acceptable 
supplemental registration application. All receipts and official copies 
shall expire at midnight on the 31st day of December of the registration 
year for which they were issued.
    (c) A carrier is permitted to operate its motor vehicles only in 
those participating States with respect to which it has paid appropriate 
fees, as indicated on the receipts and official copies. It may not 
operate more motor vehicles in a participating State than the number for 
which it has paid fees.
    (d) A motor carrier may not copy or alter a receipt or an official 
copy of a receipt.
    (e) A motor carrier must maintain in each of its motor vehicles an 
official copy of its receipt indicating that it has filed the required 
proof of insurance and paid appropriate fees for each State in which it 
operates.
    (f) A motor carrier may transfer its official copies of its receipts 
from vehicles taken out of service to their replacement vehicles.
    (g) The driver of a motor vehicle must present an official copy of a 
receipt for inspection by any authorized government personnel on 
reasonable demand.
    (h) No registration State shall require decals, stamps, cab cards, 
or any other means of registering or identifying specific vehicles 
operated by a motor carrier.
