Carrier details
Summary
How BOC-3 filing works.
A BOC-3 designates a process agent in every state — required by the FMCSA before your operating authority can be activated. Here is what happens after you place your order.
Submit Your Carrier Information
Provide your Legal Name, DBA (if applicable), USDOT Number, MC/FF Number, and principal business address. We verify everything matches your federal records before proceeding.
We File with the FMCSA
Once verified, we electronically submit your BOC-3 Blanket Designation to the FMCSA. This designates a registered process agent in every state where you operate.
FMCSA Processing (24–48 Hours)
The FMCSA reviews and records your filing. It typically reflects in their system within 24–48 hours of submission.
Receive Your Filing Documents
You will receive a filed copy of your BOC-3 form, a confirmation letter verifying your filing is active, and the Master List of Agents covering every state.
Authority Activation
Your operating authority cannot activate without a BOC-3 on file. Once processed, you are one step closer to legally hauling freight.
