A tire position determination system is provided with: a plurality of tire air pressure transmitters each capable of transmitting a first radio signal including air pressure data and a tire ID; a plurality of axle rotation detection units each generating axle rotation information; and a receiver mounted to a vehicle body and capable of receiving the first radio signal. Each of the plurality of tire air pressure transmitters includes a specific position detection unit capable of detecting the arrival of the tire air pressure transmitter at a specific position on a trajectory of rotation of the tire, and a transmission control unit that, based on a result of detection, generates a second radio signal including data indicating the arrival of the tire air pressure transmitter at the specific position on the trajectory of rotation of the tire and the ID. The receiver includes a position determination unit that determines a tire position of the plurality of tires based on the second radio signal.

A registration device includes a processor that writes an ID code to an invalid ID code storage region in accordance with management data, updates the management data after the ID code is safely written, and validates the invalid ID code storage region storing the ID code. After the ID code is written, when an ID code is stored in every one of the ID code storage regions, the processor updates the management data to invalidate the ID code storage region excluding the invalid ID code storage region storing the ID code.
