§ 63.2. Scope.
(a) Registration recognition. Vehicles proportionally registered in jurisdictions which have entered into proportional registration agreements, including the International Registration Plan, under this chapter and have paid fees to the Commonwealth will be deemed to be fully registered in this Commonwealth for any type of movement or operation, if the registrant has proper interstate or intrastate authority from the appropriate regulatory agency or is exempt from regulation by the regulatory agency.
(b) Other fees not waived. The agreements do not waive fees or taxes charged or levied by a jurisdiction in connection with the ownership or operation of vehicles other than the apportionable fees as defined in this chapter. Other fees and taxes shall be paid to each jurisdiction in accordance with the laws of each jurisdiction.
(c) Base jurisdiction choice. Registrants based in a jurisdiction other than a member jurisdiction, who have been licensing vehicles in a member jurisdiction under the basing point, allocation or proration forms of registration may declare the Commonwealth as a base jurisdiction for purposes of the agreements until the registrant’s base jurisdiction becomes a member jurisdiction if the most miles traveled among the member jurisdictions are in this Commonwealth.
(d) Options of registrants.
(1) The registrant may choose to fully register in a jurisdiction or purchase a limited number of trip permits in lieu of apportioned registration.
(2) The registrant may divide his vehicles into a number of fleets.
(3) A vehicle or combination of vehicles which travels in two or more member jurisdictions but which is not otherwise within the definition of ‘‘apportionable vehicle’’ may be proportionally registered at the option of the registrant.
(e) Other general rules.
(1) Apportionable vehicles registered nonproportionally in member jurisdictions or registered proportionally in a member jurisdiction but excluding the Commonwealth in their apportionment shall be subject to the restrictions contained in 75 Pa.C.S. § 1303 (relating to vehicles of nonresidents exempt from registration).
(2) Rental vehicles subject to § 63.34 (relating to rental vehicles) which are not proportionally allocated or registered with this Commonwealth shall be subject to the restrictions contained in 75 Pa.C.S. § 1303.
(3) A vehicle based in this Commonwealth for use only in this Commonwealth or nonmember jurisdictions, or both, shall continue to be registered in this Commonwealth on a nonapportioned basis.
