If you are looking to travel within Kentucky as a Bus, Taxi, Limo, DPV, Utility Trailer, TNC, Drive Away, Household Goods, Intrastate For-Hire, or Interstate for Hire, you will need to purchase a Kentucky INTRASTATE AUTHORITY CERTIFICATE.
The International Registration Plan is a reciprocity agreement among states of the US, the District of Columbia, and provinces of Canada which recognizes the registration of commercial motor vehicles issued by other jurisdictions.
Kentucky-based carriers operating only within the state must comply with intrastate for-hire requirements. Find out what documentation and certificates are needed to stay legal and compliant.
