New Mexico and California question

New Mexico can be purchased at the Port of Entry or online thru a permit service. Not sure about getting a California Motor Carrier Permit quickly or even when it is required for outnof state based carriers.

Here is a California based permit service that I know can help with the NM weight distance permit and should have answers about any other California requirements.

NM tax revenue online site . Cheaper to register and pay upfront cost than purchase at point of entry . Just register your truck for the year .

 

They will pull you over at weigh station, ask where you are going and make you pay on the spot

 

Weight Distance - NM Motor Vehicle Division

You won't need one for California if you're running interstate.

 

For New Mexico go to https://tap.state.nm.us
Create an account, an annual permit will cost $10. You will then have to do quarterly filings to report your miles and pay the amount due.

 

It's a pain in the ### by the time you do NM, KY, NY, and the biggest douche of a state Oregon. Since you're a new authority if you plan on running otr might as well get them all done asap so you don't run into this problem again later.
