Biennial Update

Biennial updates are required by 49 CFR 390.19(b)(4). The biennial update is an update to the DOT number itself, and is required to be filed at least every two years, but is based off the last two digits of your DOT Number. The chart is as follows:

2nd to last digit
Even number, file every even year.
Odd number, file every odd year.

Last digit
Required to be filed by the last day of:

1 - January
2 - February
3 - March
4 - April
5 - May
6 - June
7 - July
8 - August
9 - September
0 - October

For the Lifetime Filing your assigned agent will be contacting you every two years to gather the information required and automatically file the update, with no additional charges for the lifetime of your USDOT number. For those planning on operating for quite some time, this is the option for you.

For the Standard Filing we will submit the update to your DOT number once, and your update will need to be performed again in the future. Each standard filing is $197.00

We complete the update for you, ensuring accuracy and avoiding any potential out of service notices for failure to complete the update. After checkout, you will be contacted by your compliance agent to confirm your order, and gather the information required to file the update, such as; any changes to drivers, vehicles, addresses, business name, and estimated mileage operated in the last 12 months (if applicable) or since your USDOT number was first created.

Failure to file the update by the deadline will result in your USDOT number being placed Out of Service.
