How Colorado carriers file UCR
Colorado is one of the 41 states that participate in the UCR program, so Colorado-based interstate carriers register and pay through the national UCR system. Either way, the registration itself is the same national process — and EasyUCR handles it the same way: enter your USDOT and the AI pulls your record, computes your fee, opens the official portal, and fills it live while you watch. You review and submit.
The fee is the same everywhere
UCR fees are set nationally, not by your state — $46 for 0–2 power units up to $44,836 for the largest fleets. Your base state determines where your fees are administered, not how much you pay.

| 6–20 | $276 |
| 21–100 | $963 |
