The IRP front office has moved to our new location at 3265 S Wadsworth Blvd #3A, Lakewood, Colorado 80227.
Steps to title and register a commercial vehicle:
- Titling for ALL commercial vehicles shall be handled at the owner's County Motor Vehicle Offices.
- Effective May 1, 2024, intrastate (travel only in Colorado) commercial vehicles, that weigh 10,001lbs or more, shall be required to provide their DOT, EIN or SSN upon registration with their County Motor Vehicle Office, due to the passage of Senate Bill 23-012 Commercial Motor Carrier Enforcement Safety Laws.
- Commercial vehicles that travel interstate (outside of Colorado) shall complete their registration and International Registration Plan (IRP) account creation with the state DMV office.

International Registration Plan (IRP)
The International Registration Plan (IRP) is necessary for vehicles that will be used on an interstate or international basis. Vehicle Services is now serving IRP customers via appointment ONLY for new originals, supplements or renewals. IRP customers can also access the IRP portal from myDMV in the Vehicle Services tab; you will need to create an IRP account first.
Schedule an appointment and select the appropriate transaction box (IRP Originals or IRP Supplements/Renewals), select dates in green for appointment availability. If none are available, please check back as appointments will be added.
For documentation requirements, please see the International Registration Plan webpage. Please fax any documentation you have for your appointment a minimum of 1 business day prior to 303-205-5981 to ensure your transaction can be processed. If all required documentation is not provided or accurate, this could result in having to reschedule your appointment if the transaction cannot be completed during your scheduled time.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
