Our team will help to correct/update USDOT numbers (MCSA-1 or MCS-150 form). We work with motor carriers (private or for-hire), brokers, intermodal that are interstate or intrastate operations.
The form filed to update/remove existing company records or reapply for a USDOT number after revocation is the MCS-150, Motor Carrier Identification Report. This form provides the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) with the details of your carrier operation. Failing to update or incorrect MCS-150 information can have serious consequences on the business, including deactivation of your USDOT number and impacts to your safety performance scores.
To remain an active carrier, the MCS-150 update form must be resubmitted every other year, even if there are no changes to your information.
The filing schedule is:
| If the USDOT # ends in: | Must file by the last day of: |
|---|---|
| 1 | January |
| 2 | February |
| 3 | March |
| 4 | April |
| 5 | May |
| 6 | June |
| 7 | July |
| 8 | August |
| 9 | September |
| 0 | October |
If the next-to-last digit of the USDOT number is odd, the entity needs to file its update in every odd-numbered calendar year. If the next-to-last digit is even, the entity shall file its update in every even-numbered calendar year (49CFR 390.19).
The definition in 390.5 refers to a vehicle used on a highway, in interstate commerce, that meets any one of the following criteria:
- has a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) or gross combination weight rating (GCWR), or gross vehicle weight (GVW) or gross combination weight (GCW) of 10,001 pounds or more, whichever is greater;
- is designed to transport more than 8 passengers (including the driver) for compensation;
- is designed to transport 16 or more people including the driver, and is not used to transport passengers for compensation; or
