BIENNIAL UPDATE

Are you filing the update as mandated?

The federal motor carrier safety administration (FMCSA) mandates all motor
carriers to update their information every other year. If you are a motor
carrier operating under its authority, you will have to ensure that your company
remains in business, and for that, you will have to file an update every two
years. Even if your business has had no significant changes in the past, you are
required to file this update to be able to perform carrier operations without
any hiccups.


WHAT ARE THE FINES AND PENALTIES FOR NON-COMPLIANCE?

 * Failure to complete your biennial update quickly gives FMCSA the authority to
   deactivate your U.S. DOT Number.
 * You may also have to face a fine of $1,000 per day and a maximum allowable
   fine of $10,000 - which can be a real drain on your business.


ARE YOU GOING OUT OF BUSINESS?

Shutting Down Operations

You can deactivate your U.S. DOT Number, but there is a specific process you
must follow. Unlike other processes, this cannot be completed online.

Unfortunately, just going to the official website is not going to help. Instead,
you must either mail or fax the necessary information and a signed and updated
MCS-150 form. You need to check the box "out of business," which means out of
motor carrier operations - even if your company is still operational. Therefore,
you can fill out this form and mail it to the concerned authorities if you are
shutting down your transport operations.


FEATURES

UPDATE EVERY TWO YEARS

A carrier must provide this update every two years - even if the company has not
changed its information, has ceased inter-state operations since the last
update, or is no longer in business, and you did not notify the FMCSA.

IF THERE ARE NO CHANGES

Companies must update their details with the authority every two years - even if
there are no changes or updates in their fleet size, company name, address, or
anything related to the company.

ODD-EVEN METHOD

If the next-to-last digit of the DOT Number is odd, the carrier shall file the
update in every odd-numbered calendar year, and if it is even then every
even-numbered calendar year. The last number of the DOT Number is the month it
is due; 1: January, 2: February, 0: October.


VMT OUTDATED

FMCSA requires all motor carriers to update their Motor Carrier Identification
Report (MCS-150) every two years (biennially). VMT is the measure of vehicle
miles traveled per capita, which is calculated by the total annual miles of
vehicle travel divided by the total population in a state or in an urbanized
area. VMT is used to calculate Crash Indicator Behavior Analysis and Unsafe
Driving and for Safety Improvement Category (BASIC) percentiles.

REGULAR UPDATE

According to the FMCSA, it is mandatory for all motor carriers under its
authority to update their information every two years. Any time a carrier or
other regulated entity changes its address or other details, such as name in
their record, they should update their U.S. DOT and operating authority record
with FMCSA in a timely fashion.

REACTIVATION

When it comes to reapplication or reactivating your DOT Number, several factors
might have led to the deactivation of your status, such as unpaid International
Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) taxes, not filing your required biennial update, and
more.

Reactivate Now

OPERATING WITHOUT AN AUTHORITY?

If you are operating without operating authority or beyond the scope of your
authority, you can be forced out of service by the FMSCA. You may also be
subject to fines.

Apply Now

LISTED AS “NOT AUTHORIZED”?

Your Operating Authority is not active and you are NOT Authorized to operate as
for-hire in inter-state commerce. Operating authority can be understood as the
legal right of a motor carrier to operate a commercial motor vehicle across the
United States.

Submit Application



FILING YOUR BIENNIAL UPDATE CAN BE SIMPLE!

All you need is an Employer Identification Number (EIN) or Social Security
Number (SSN). If you are an independent owner-operator, you need a U.S. DOT
Number. Other information includes the official name and mailing address of your
company in addition to your Personal Identification Number (PIN). The official
FMCSA website sends you a pin after your formal request. The rest is usually
conveyed to you as you go through their directions.

 * You must know when you need to file the update and provide the FMCSA with the
   necessary information it requires before or at the renewal date.
 * Remember, your renewal date will correspond with the last digit of your U.S.
   DOT Number.
 * As a part of the trucking industry, you need to keep track of all your
   information and update it regularly.




HOW DO YOU FILE YOUR MCS-150 FORM?

The ideal way to file this form is to understand the due date. The due date is
different for every company and is determined by the last two digits of your
U.S. DOT Number.

You will note the second-to-last digit of your number is for the filing year:

 * If this number is odd, you must file your MCS-150 form in odd years (e.g.,
   2021, 2023, 2025...)
 * If this number is even, you must file your MCS-150 form in even years. (e.g.,
   2020, 2022, 2024...)

Now, the last digit of your U.S. DOT Number is for month: If this number ends in
1, you must file this form by the last day of January. If the number ends in 2,
you must file this form by the last day of February. Similarly, if the number
ends in 3, you will have to file this form by the last day of March...



MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS:

There are a few other mandatory requirements each trucking company should be
aware of, including:

 * Regardless of when you filed a biennial update previously, you must file
   another updated report whenever the due date arrives.
 * Even if your business has had minor changes in the past, you are required to
   file this update
 * FMCSA requires they be notified within 30 days of ANY change of operation
   between filing dates (e.g., address, phone number, driver or vehicle changes,
   or operations changes).
 * Any changes made without communication to the FMCSA may subject you to fines
   and even your U.S. DOT Number revocation.

HAVE YOU CHECKED FOR INACCURACIES?

Inaccurate Information Can Cost Big Money!

If the information filled out by you on any of the forms is incorrect, it could
negatively impact your account. In the following situations, you may need to
submit a new updated MCS-150 form:

 * Whenever you add a new truck or vehicle to your fleet
 * Whenever you change the name of your company
 * When you make other significant changes in your organization or structure

Submit Application


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What is a biennial update?
In the simplest words, a biennial update is a requirement that the federal motor
carrier safety administration has put forth. Under this mandate, you must update
your MCS-150 form - also known as the motor carrier identification report. You
must do this update every two years without exception.
Who is required to submit a biennial update?
All U.S. DOT Number carriers (Interstate or Intrastate Carrier Operations, Motor
Carrier, Broker, Shipper, Freight Forwarder and/or Cargo Tank Facility) must
update based on a schedule dictated by the last two digits of U.S. DOT Number.
You may also need to submit this update if you are no longer in business and
have not yet notified the FMCSA, as they are required to be notified within 30
days of any change of operation and a final written report filed.
When should I file a biennial update?
You will be required to provide this update every two years if there is a change
in your company information. You should do this even if your company has not
changed information. If you have ceased any inter-state operations since the
last update or are no longer in business, you may have to submit this update.
Am I required to file a biennial update if there are no changes?
Yes, you are still required to submit a biennial update every two years
regardless of whether any information related to your business has been updated,
changed, or modified or not.
