WHAT IS A BIENNIAL UPDATE?

If your regulated entity changes its legal name, address, cargo, number of trucks or any other information about your USDOT account, then you must update your USDOT record with FMCSA within the required time limits.

The FMSCA requires that all entities under its jurisdiction update their information every two years. In addition, our well-trained staff here at DOT Filing helps you handle this with ease.

IF YOU CANNOT COMPLETE YOUR BIENNIAL UPDATE

If you do not meet the requirements when updating your USDOT number, your account will be deactivated and you can be fined of up to $ 1,000 per day (but not more than $ 10,000 in total)

DOT NUMBER DEACTIVATION

If you decide to deactivate your USDOT number, there are certain requirements that must be met for this. It can be very tiring and stressful. Our well-trained agents at DOT Filing are specially trained to deal with such situations. You can count on us, pick up your phone and call 818-568-0644!

DOT Number Reactivation

Reactivation of the USDOT number is necessary for the following reasons:
