What you need to know about MC & DOT

  • A USDOT number is the same as a DOT number, used interchangeably in the trucking industry. It must be displayed on every commercial vehicle.

  • You need a DOT number if your company:

    • Operates vehicles over 10,001 lbs

    • Transports passengers (9+ people for hire, 16+ for any purpose)

    • Carries hazardous materials

    • Operates interstate as a carrier, broker, or freight forwarder

    • Is located in one of 39 states where DOT numbers are mandatory

  • Operating without a DOT number can result in:

    • Fines up to $10,000 per violation

    • Immediate Out-of-Service orders, stopping your trucks on the spot

    • Revocation of operating authority, preventing your company from legally running

  • To apply for a DOT number, you’ll need:

    • Business information (name, location, contact)

    • Owner/representative details for FMCSA communication

    • Operation classification (cargo or passenger)

    • Vehicle and operation type (weight, purpose, interstate/intrastate)

    • A valid, verifiable business address

  • You’ll need an MC Number (Motor Carrier Authority) in addition to your DOT Number if your company:

    • Transports passengers across state lines for compensation

    • Moves federally regulated goods across state lines for hire

    • Operates as a for-hire carrier (hauling property or commodities you don’t own)

    • Provides interstate moving services for households or businesses

    If you only operate within one state and don’t carry regulated cargo or passengers, you may not need an MC Number.

What is a DOT Number?

  • DOT Number: Required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for most commercial vehicles operating interstate. It identifies your company and tracks safety, compliance, and inspections. Without it, you can’t operate legally across state lines.

  • MC Number: Grants your authority to transport regulated commodities or passengers in interstate commerce. It proves you’re authorized to operate as a for-hire carrier. Without it, your business can face shutdowns, penalties, and loss of contracts.

 

Bottom line: MC and DOT numbers are the foundation of legal trucking operations. They keep you compliant, protect your business from fines, and allow you to grow without interruptions.

FAQ Section 

  • DOT compliance means following all safety regulations set by the U.S. Department of Transportation and FMCSA. It ensures your company operates legally, avoids fines, and most importantly, keeps drivers and the public safe.

  • Carriers must maintain driver qualification files, hours-of-service logs, vehicle maintenance records, inspection reports, drug and alcohol testing records, and proof of insurance. These may be requested during audits.

  • Commercial vehicles must undergo a DOT annual inspection at least once every 12 months. In addition, drivers must perform daily pre-trip and post-trip inspections, with written reports for defects.

  • A safety audit is a review conducted by FMCSA within the first 12 months of receiving your DOT number. It verifies that your company has the required safety management systems and records in place.

  • Failure to comply may lead to fines, suspension of your operating authority, or even being placed out of service. Having proper records and a compliance program reduces these risks.

  • You can manage compliance internally, but it requires constant monitoring and accurate record-keeping. Many carriers choose compliance services to stay up to date, avoid violations, and focus on running their business.
