REQUIRED BEFORE AUTHORITY IS GRANTED
BOC-3 filing: $49, all 50 states, no phone call required
The BOC-3 is the smallest filing in trucking with the biggest blocking power: FMCSA will not grant your authority without it. It names a process agent — someone who can receive legal papers for you — in every state.
The government fee is $0. What you're buying is the registered blanket agent network (federal rules say only a registered agent company can file it) and the certainty it lands on your record correctly. Ours is $49, flat, filed the same business day.

Straight answers
▸What is a BOC-3?
The 'Designation of Process Agents' — a filing that names someone in each state who can accept legal papers on your company's behalf. FMCSA requires it on file before granting any operating authority. In practice, a registered blanket agent company covers all 50 states in one electronic filing.
▸Can I file a BOC-3 myself?
For carriers: effectively no. Only an FMCSA-registered process agent company can file the electronic blanket designation covering all states. That's why every BOC-3 involves a company like ours partnered with a registered blanket agent — the honest question is only what you pay for it.
▸How fast does it show up?
We file same business day, and FMCSA's system typically shows the designation within a day or two. If your authority application is waiting on it, this is usually the fastest box to check.
▸Is it one-time or recurring?
The filing is one-time for your authority, but the process-agent designation must stay active — if your agent company drops you, your authority is at risk. Our fee includes the ongoing designation, and we alert you if anything changes on your record.
