PART 367_STANDARDS FOR REGISTRATION WITH STATES--Table of Contents

 

Sec. 367.3  Selection of registration State.



    (a) Each motor carrier required to register and pay filing fees must 

select a single participating State as its registration State. The 

carrier must select the State in which it maintains its principal place 

of business, if such State is a participating State. A carrier that 

maintains its principal place of business outside of a participating 

State must select the State in which it will operate the largest number 

of motor vehicles during the next registration year. In the event a 

carrier will operate the same largest number of vehicles in more than 

one State, it must select one of those States.

    (b) A carrier may not change its registration State unless it 

changes its principal place of business or its registration State ceases 

participating in the program, in which case the carrier must select a 

registration State for the next registration year under the standards of 

paragraph (a) of this section.

    (c) A carrier must give notice of its selection to the State 

commission of its selected registration State, and, the State commission 

of its prior registration State, within 30 days after it has made its 

selection. If a carrier changes its principal place of business during 

the annual registration period specified in Sec. 367.4(b)(2), the 

carrier may continue to use its prior registration State, if any, for 

the next registration year.

    (d) A carrier must give notice of its selection to its insurer or 

insurers as soon as practicable after it has made its selection.
