Terms of Service

Last updated: November 15, 2026

1. Who we are

DOT Number Help is a private company that helps motor carriers, brokers and freight forwarders understand and fix registration problems and prepare filings. We are not a government agency and are not affiliated with, endorsed by or acting on behalf of FMCSA, USDOT or any state or federal agency.

2. You can file yourself

You may update your USDOT record, request reactivation or reinstatement, apply for operating authority and register for UCR directly with the government, paying only the government fees that apply. USDOT registration and record updates have no government fee. Any fee we charge is for review, preparation and support, is agreed with you before work begins, and is separate from government fees, insurance premiums, bond costs or process agent charges.

3. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for giving us accurate and complete information and for completing any identity verification FMCSA requires of you. Filings are made based on what you provide.

4. No guarantee of outcome

FMCSA and other agencies decide whether and when to activate, reinstate or lift anything. We do not guarantee any result or processing time.

5. Not legal advice

Content on this site and our communications are general information, not legal advice. For contested enforcement matters, consult a transportation attorney.

6. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to our services is limited to the fee you paid us for the service at issue.

7. Changes

We may update these terms. The date above shows when they last changed.
