Broker Freight Forwarder Compliance Date Extension

FMCSA proposes to amend its November 16, 2023, final rule, “Broker and Freight Forwarder Financial Responsibility,” extending the compliance date for certain provisions from January 16, 2025, to January 16, 2026. FMCSA determined that only its forthcoming electronic registration system will be used to accept filings and track notifications; this functionality will not be added to legacy systems. As the new system is not expected to be widely available before January 16, 2025, FMCSA proposes to extend the compliance date to provide regulated entities time to begin using and familiarizing themselves with the system before compliance is required.
