Texas Intrastate Authority
If you operate INTRAstate commercial motor vehicles on roads or highways in Texas, it is essential to register your operations with the TxDMV's Motor Carrier Division. Ensure compliance and meet the necessary requirements to legally conduct your business in Texas.
When to Register as a Motor Carrier
You are required to register as a motor carrier in Texas if you meet any of the following criteria:
Operating a Commercial Motor Vehicle: If you operate a commercial motor vehicle or a combination of vehicles with a gross weight, registered weight, or gross-weight rating exceeding 26,000 pounds.
Transporting Hazardous Materials: If you transport hazardous materials in a quantity that requires placarding.
Operating a Farm Vehicle: If you operate a farm vehicle with a gross weight, registered weight, or gross weight rating of 48,000 pounds or more.
Transporting Passengers: If you operate a vehicle designed to transport more than 15 passengers, including the driver. This includes commercial school buses.
Transporting Household Goods: If you transport household goods for compensation, regardless of vehicle weight.
Important Considerations
Non-Transferable Registration: A motor carrier certificate of registration is non-transferable between carriers registered as a sole proprietor. Each carrier must obtain their own registration.
