What is a Process Agent?
A process agent is a representative upon whom court papers may be served in any proceeding brought against a motor carrier, broker, or freight forwarder. When all Unified Registration System (URS) provisions are implemented, every motor carrier (of property or passengers) shall make a designation for each State in which it is authorized to operate and for each State traversed during such operations. Before that time, only for-hire carriers are required to designate a process agent. Brokers are required to list process agents in each state in which they have an office and in which they write contracts. FMCSA Regulation 49 CFR Part 366 details more about the Designation of Process Agents by Motor Carriers and Brokers. On January 17, 2017, FMCSA published a Federal Register notice with more details on the suspension of the URS effectiveness date.
How Do I Designate a Process Agent?
The applicant should contact a process agent, who can file Form BOC-3 (Designation of Process Agents) with the FMCSA. Only one completed form may be on file. It must include all states for which agency designations are required. One copy must be retained by the carrier or broker at its principal place of business.
Companies may select any blanket company on the process agent list (they are not limited to the state in which they are domiciled). Each blanket company has a process agent they work with in each state.
