Frequently asked
- What government fees does a trucking company pay by state?
- Depending on where and how you run: a temporary trip permit and fuel permit (if you're not registered for IRP/IFTA), an IFTA license and decals from your base state, oversize/overweight permits for heavy or large loads, state intrastate operating authority, weight-distance tax enrollment in a few states, and apportioned IRP registration. Federal fees (USDOT, MC authority, UCR, HVUT) apply on top everywhere.
- Are these the real government prices or broker quotes?
- These are the official government amounts — what the state or federal agency charges — read from each agency's own page or statute, independently re-checked, and dated. Permit services and wire services add their own markup on top; knowing the official fee tells you how much of a quote is the state's price.
- How current are the fees?
- Each figure carries a verification date shown next to its source link. Fees change, so always confirm the current amount with the linked agency before you file or buy a permit. This is compliance-planning information, not legal or tax advice.
