Frequently Asked Questions
Is a USDOT Number the same as an MC Number?
No — a USDOT Number identifies your company; an MC Number grants operating authority.
How long does it take to get a USDOT Number?
In most cases, USDOT Numbers are issued immediately upon successful submission.
Does this include Operating Authority?
No — Operating Authority (MC) is a separate filing.
Is this required for intrastate carriers?
Some states require USDOT Numbers for intrastate operations. We can advise based on your state.
