The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) will soon roll out the agency's new registration system. There are critical steps you must take to prepare for the launch:

Please take the following actions in the FMCSA Portal by May 14, 2026:

• Log into your FMCSA Portal account (portal.fmcsa.dot.gov) to confirm it is active. If you do not have a Portal account, you can create one and use your USDOT PIN to access your information. Obtain your PIN at: safer.fmcsa.dot.gov.
• Please note that FMCSA Portal accounts are disabled after 90 days and archived after 12 months of inactivity. If your account is disabled or archived, reach out to the FMCSA Contact Center at www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/ask-fmcsa to have your account unlocked.
• In the Portal, ensure your company information, operation classification, contact information, and individuals authorized to access your record are all correct.
• You can make updates to your company information in the FMCSA Portal the same way you complete a Biennial Update. Select “Biennial Update (MCS-150)” in the “Registration” tab.

Only the FMCSA Portal Company Official using the same FMCSA Portal Login.gov email will be permitted to claim an account in Motus for the first time. Once your account is successfully linked to Motus, you will no longer need to access the FMCSA Portal to make registration changes.

Please download the “FMCSA Portal Registration User Guide for FMCSA Registered Entities and Associates” at www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/fmcsa-portal-registration-userguide-fmcsa-registered-entities-and-associates.
