What is a USDOT Number?
A USDOT number is a unique identifier required for:
- Florida Interstate carriers: Those transporting goods or passengers across state lines.
- Florida Intrastate carriers: Operators in Florida hauling hazardous materials in quantities requiring placards.
- Commercial vehicle operators: With a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of over 10,000 lbs.
The number allows the FMCSA to monitor safety data, including inspections, crashes, and compliance reviews.
Who Needs a USDOT Number in Florida?
In Florida, businesses operating commercial vehicles must have a USDOT number if they meet any of the criteria above. Even intrastate carriers might need one, depending on their cargo and operational scope. The USDOT number ensures compliance with the FMCSA’s safety standards and Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles regulations.
The Application Process
Applying for a USDOT number involves registering through the FMCSA’s Unified Registration System (URS). This process requires accurate information about your business, vehicle types, and operation scope. Florida-based carriers may also need additional filings, such as:
- FMCSA New Entrant Safety Program participation.
- Compliance with Hours-of-Service and maintenance standards.
