What is it?

Who needs it?
- Carriers with MC authority
- Brokers and freight forwarders
How we do it
- You give us your USDOT and MC numbers.
- We file the BOC-3 through a process agent provider.
- The provider files it electronically with FMCSA.

Before paying you see the full summary with official fees. You pay online by card, securely.
What happens if it's not up to date?
- Without a BOC-3, FMCSA won't activate your MC authority.
- If it's cancelled, FMCSA revokes your MC.
- Without active authority you can't operate for hire across state lines.
When you may not need it
- You only have a USDOT without an MC (private or intrastate carrier)
