Importance of FMCSA Compliance

FMCSA acts as the watchful eyes of safety and operational standards for all commercial motor carriers operating across the United States. These dues are required for:

  • The permission to operate legally
  • Safer operational capabilities of the fleet
  • Minimized risk of violations
  • Facilitated inspections and DOT audits
  • Better insurance rates and business credibility

FMCSA Compliance Areas of Which You Must Keep an Eye On

DOT Number & MC Authority

Every carrier must hold the USDOT Number for safety monitoring and MC Authority for interstate operations before setting any truck on the public road. We believe in working closely with a lot of new authorities filing their initial 2290, and keeping them on the right track from day one becomes our goal.

Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) – Form 2290

Your FMCSA compliance is initiated when you file your 2290. File your 2290 with us and instantly receive your IRS-stamped Schedule 1 for:

  • Truck registration
  • IRP plates
  • IFTA renewal
  • DMV/Tag renewals

A missed HVUT filing means penalties and registration delays that a trucking business can ill afford.

Driver Qualification (DQ) Files

Every carrier must keep their DQ files current, containing:

  • Employment application
  • MVR checks
  • Medical certificates
  • Road test certificates

Keeping all of these organized will help avert FMCSA violations.

Drug & Alcohol Testing Compliance (Part 382)

Carriers must include the mandatory records for all drivers in their random drug & alcohol testing program. The following tests must be performed and documented accordingly:

  • Pre-employment tests
  • Random pool tests
  • Post-Accident tests
  • Reasonable suspicion tests
  • Clearinghouse queries

Vehicle Maintenance & Inspection Requirements

  • FMCSA requires;
  • Daily vehicle inspection
  • Annual DOT inspection
  • Maintenance logs
  • Repair documentation

These documents help errant roadside violations and improve safety scores.

Hours of Service (HOS) & ELD Compliance

Your drivers must obey the HOS rules and use certified ELDs to accurately track their driving time.

IFTA, IRP & State Permitse

Carriers must communicate fuel tax reporting, apportioned plates, and state trip permits in order to stay compliant across all states.

The assistance provided was beyond expectations. This was my first time doing it, and their support stayed with me until everything was completed. It took me longer because I was multitasking and they waited whileI was getting other things done. Thank you! The best service I have ever received from any phone support.

I have been using Simple Truck Tax for six years now to file our yearly 2290. It is simple to use, and they file it quickly. I have a login, and it is easy to add and remove trucks. They remember my information, so I don't have to upload it again the following year. I definitely recommend their 2290 service.
