WHAT IS A USDOT NUMBER?

The DOT (Department of Transportation, or USDOT) is the Federal department of the U.S. government. To achieve its mission it is in charge of legislating regulations for commercial vehicles, requiring them to be registered under a USDOT number.

 

 

A USDOT number is a unique identifier assigned to you by the Department of Transportation (DOT). This federally mandated number is used by the DOT/FMCSA to look up your company’s information and determine whether you’re in compliance.

Whether you are a sole proprietor or an owner of a large trucking company, the same regulations apply to all.
