Authority Reinstatement
For authority suspended or revoked over insurance or BOC-3 filings.
FMCSA suspends or revokes operating authority when a required filing drops off your record, most often insurance or the BOC-3. Carriers usually get a notice first with a deadline to fix it. Acting before that date can keep your authority from going inactive at all.
Common Reasons for Suspension
- Your insurance company cancelled its BMC-91 or BMC-91X filing
- Your BOC-3 process agent filing was cancelled
- Your USDOT number went inactive
- You requested revocation and now want to operate again
Why Speed Matters
You cannot haul under suspended authority, and brokers check status before every load. If you got a notice, you usually have a short window to get the missing filing back on record before the suspension takes effect.
Before You Start
- Your USDOT and MC numbers
- The notice you received, if any
- Your insurance agent's contact information
How Reinstatement Works
- We look up your record and confirm exactly why the authority was suspended.
- We file a new BOC-3 if needed and send your insurance agent what they must refile.
- We request reinstatement in Motus once the filings are back on record.
- We confirm when your authority shows active again.
What It Costs
