LONG HAUL: I have a bus company in Mexico and I want to provide service to all areas in California and to Las Vegas, NV. Do I need Operating Authority, and how long will it take to get it?

Answer:

Yes, you must file an OP-1(MX) for motor passenger carrier authority beyond the commercial zone.  However, no authority will be issued for operations beyond the zone until the land transportation provisions of NAFTA are implemented.
