What is a carrier’s base state under UCRA?
Like SSRS, the UCRA is a base-state system, under which a carrier or other entity subject to the UCRA fees pays these through its base state on behalf of all the participating states. As under SSRS, a carrier (or other entity’s) base state is the participating state in which it maintains its principal place of business. A carrier whose principal place of business is not in a participating state or is outside the United States may choose as its base a participating state in which it has an office or operating facility.
