Attention All Motor Carriers, Brokers, and Leasing Companies:
If you’re engaged in interstate transportation or operate in UCR-participating states, you must register your US DOT number with the Unified Carrier Registration (UCR).
Act Now to Avoid Penalties:
Effective January 1, 2025, non-compliance with UCR regulations can lead to serious consequences, including state citations, fines, penalties, and sanctions from the DOT and the UCR board. Not only could you face financial penalties, but you’ll also be unable to renew truck registrations or IFTA credentials without being UCR-compliant.
Ensure Compliance and Save Money:
To avoid complications, make sure the number of trucks you register matches what’s reported on your most recent MCS-150 / Biennial Update. This is critical for determining your filing fee and truck tier pricing. The cost covers your UCR filing fee, processing fee, and any additional charges for processing and certification.
Brokers, Don’t Miss This!
If you broker loads across state lines, even with 1-2 trucks, you are required to register in the UCR program. Protect your business and stay compliant by registering today.
Everything You Need to Know to Stay Compliant and Keep Your USDOT
The MCS-150 form, also known as the Motor Carrier Identification Report, is required to update your USDOT number information every two years. It’s mandatory even if your business is not active.
The Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) is a federal requirement for interstate motor carriers and other businesses operating commercial vehicles. It’s an annual registration that ensures compliance with state and federal laws.
If you’re receiving emails from us, it’s likely because our system has identified that your MCS-150 or UCR filings are overdue. Late filings can result in penalties, suspension of your USDOT number, or fines.
No, MCS-150 updates are required every two years, based on the last digit of your USDOT number. However, you must update it anytime your business information changes (e.g., address, vehicle count).
Failure to update your MCS-150 on time can result in your USDOT number being deactivated. Without a valid USDOT number, you cannot legally operate commercial vehicles.
If you don’t renew your UCR, you may face fines and penalties from states where your vehicles operate. States have the authority to conduct audits and enforcement actions, including placing your vehicles out of service.
You can check the status of your MCS-150 on the FMCSA’s website. For UCR, visit the Unified Carrier Registration website or check your registration year directly.
