SCDMV Form MC-4. IRP Carrier Refund Request

The SCDMV Form MC-4, also known as the IRP Carrier Refund Request, is used by International Registration Plan (IRP) carriers to request refunds for overpayments on their IRP registration fees. The IRP is a reciprocal agreement among states, provinces, and territories of the United States and Canada that allows commercial vehicles to travel across jurisdictions with a single registration.

The form consists of sections where the IRP carrier provides their company's information, including name, address, contact details, and tax identification number. The carrier must also provide details regarding the overpayment for which they are requesting a refund, including the amount, reason for overpayment, and supporting documentation if applicable.

It is important for IRP carriers to carefully complete this form, ensuring that all requested information is provided accurately. They should also include any necessary supporting documentation to substantiate their refund request.

An example of a scenario where this form may be used is when an IRP carrier realizes they have overpaid their registration fees due to an error or miscalculation. By completing this form and submitting it to the SCDMV, they can request a refund for the excess amount paid.

An alternative form that is commonly used for IRP carriers in South Carolina is the SCDMV Form MC-5, which is used to report changes to their vehicle fleet information, such as adding or removing vehicles from their IRP account.
