What is a FMCSA form?

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) registration process requires that companies define the type of business operation (Motor Carrier, Broker, Shipper, Freight Forwarder and/or Cargo Tank Facility) that they plan to establish.

What is the difference between FMCSA and dot?

The DOT has control over all transportation infrastructure and policies, driving innovations and developing comprehensive safety policies across the country. The FMCSA, meanwhile, is a separate department within the DOT that is only supposed to oversee the commercial trucking and busing sectors.

How much does USDOT cost?

USDOT registration is processed immediately, and USDOT numbers are issued instantly (unless rejected). By-mail USDOT applications take four to six weeks processing time. By-mail applications that are unreadable, incomplete or unsigned will be rejected and returned without the issuance of a USDOT number.

How do I get a USDOT form?

Navigate to the FMCSA website to begin the registration process. Youll want to start by reading the directions and then clicking the To Get Started, Click Here link. This will send you to a new page with information on filling out the DOT Number application form.
