Getting a DOT number in California

Interstate carriers in California register with FMCSA for a USDOT number, plus MC authority if they haul regulated freight for hire. Many states also require a USDOT number for intrastate commercial vehicles, so check with the California transportation or motor vehicle agency for intrastate rules.
