What Is FMCSA Operating Authority? Authority Filing in Wisconsin
If you're a motor carrier, freight broker, or freight forwarder operating in or through Wisconsin, federal law (49 USC §13902) requires you to apply for operating authority to operate in Wisconsin - through an authority filing with the FMCSA.
Operating authority in Wisconsin is your legal authorization from the FMCSA to operate as a motor carrier, broker, or freight forwarder. For-hire carriers of regulated freight across state lines need operating authority before hauling (49 USC 13902).
FastTruckAuthority.com is a professional operating authority service: one federal filing covers Wisconsin and all other 49 states plus Washington, D.C. Your MC number becomes active once FMCSA grants the authority.
