What is a USDOT Number :

How Tech Rig Keeps Your Trips Legal
USDOT Number is your official federal identifier required for interstate operations. Tech Rig registers for a USDOT number fast and accurately, so your authority activates, and you can start hauling.

How USDOT and MC Authority Work Together
USDOT and MC numbers are applied for together through a single FMCSA application. Your USDOT number is issued immediately upon completion, while your MC number is assigned within 1-2 days. The MC then enters a 20-25 day protest period before it activates. Tech Rig manages BOC-3 filing and insurance coordination during this period, so when the protest period ends, your MC authority goes live and you’re ready to haul.
