How do I change the company name associated with my USDOT number information?

Published 12/05/2014 12:01 PM   |    Updated 10/18/2019 12:27 PM

You may change the name or phone number of your company by submitting an updated MCS-150 (Motor Carrier Identification Report) form by mail, faxing it to 202-366-3477 or 606-330-3802, or submitting it via our web form (you will receive a tracking number). You can also complete the process online. Detailed instructions for the online process are attached to this FAQ. There is no fee.

Please note: As of February 4, 2018, FMCSA is no longer accepting expired versions of the MCS-150, MCS-150B and MCS-150C forms. 

If you change the name associated with your US DOT number, it is not automatically changed on your MC number as well. You still need to go through the MC number name change procedure. If you change the name associated with your MC number, however, the name is also changed for your US DOT number. There is a $14 fee for an MC number name change.

There are situations where a legal name change, ownership change or form of business change may require a new USDOT number. for more information, click here.
