BIENNIAL UPDATE

The United States Department of Transportation requires all motor carriers operating under a federally-issued U.S. DOT number to file a Biennial Update every 24 months, as specified in the Code of Federal Regulations CFR Title 49 Part 390.19.

The filing period (filing deadline) is determined by the U.S. DOT number assigned to your company. To learn more, click “More Information” below or call (307) 207-6362 to speak with a compliance officer.
