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

 

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.
