NY desk
new york carrier desk.
Look up the USDOT or MC before you cover NY miles. New York OS/OW is NYSDOT. Thruway and NYC DOT can add their own requirements. New York IRP/IFTA is DMV. Intrastate New York is not an FMCSA MC. Federal BI&PD is still L&I — 49 CFR 387.9 did not raise $750,000 in 2026. We do not publish a made-up carrier count for New York.
desks for this cover
- FMCSA L&I
- Federal authority and BMC-91/91X (or BMC-82). Still the filing record in September 2026.
- NYSDOT Special Hauling Permits
- New York OS/OW is NYSDOT. Thruway and NYC DOT can add their own requirements.
- New York DMV IRP / IFTA
- New York IRP/IFTA is DMV. Intrastate New York is not an FMCSA MC.
- 49 CFR 387.9
- Federal BI&PD floors did not go up in 2026. $750,000 / $1,000,000 / $5,000,000 still depend on the shipment row.
FMCSA vs New York
An Active FMCSA property MC is interstate operating authority. It is not a New York oversize permit, not IRP, not IFTA, and not intrastate authority. If this load never leaves New York, ask whether they have the state credential — and still match legal name on L&I if an MC is on the rate con.
As of September 2026, table 1 to 49 CFR 387.9 still lists $750,000, $1,000,000, and $5,000,000. The January 16, 2026 change is broker/freight-forwarder BMC-84/85 at $75,000 — your house, not the truck. The March 2026 FMCSA notice still says: do not buy or sell a USDOT or MC outside a real corporate deal.
UCR is a separate annual filing. It is not BMC-91 and not a NY OS/OW permit. Confirm UCR on the national UCR site if your process requires it. Then come back to L&I for the truck.
New York permits and credentials
New York OS/OW is NYSDOT. Thruway and NYC DOT can add their own requirements.
New York IRP/IFTA is DMV. Intrastate New York is not an FMCSA MC.
Ask the carrier which legal entity holds the NY permit. If the permit is in a different LLC than the rate con, you do not have a carrier. Screenshot the permit with the load file. A verbal “we’re permitted in New York” is not the portal.
first-touch in New York
- Does legal name, USDOT, and MC on the rate con match L&I — including Inc versus LLC — for this New York cover?
- Did you call the census telephone on SAFER, not the cell in the email?
- If this shipment is over legal in New York, is there a current NYSDOT Special Hauling Permits permit for these dimensions and this route?
- If they claim a leased truck, is that a Part 376 equipment lease — or a story that they bought the MC?
- Thruway, NYSDOT, and NYC DOT are different desks.
- A Brooklyn cell is not the census telephone on SAFER.
- New York City local rules can stop a truck that is legal on NYSDOT paper.
fail closed
- Rate con names a different legal person than L&I.
- Census phone reaches a different company or nobody who will state the DOT.
- Pending BMC-91 cancellation before pickup.
- Oversize/overweight NY miles with no NYSDOT Special Hauling Permits permit.
- Covering on a rumor that FMCSA raised $750,000 in 2026.
direct answers
- Does an FMCSA MC replace a New York oversize permit?
- No. New York OS/OW is NYSDOT. Thruway and NYC DOT can add their own requirements.
- Where do I confirm BI&PD for a truck covering NY miles?
- FMCSA Licensing & Insurance. As of September 2026, table 1 to 49 CFR 387.9 still lists $750,000 / $1,000,000 / $5,000,000. New York DMV IRP / IFTA is not BMC-91.
- What 2026 rule do brokers mix up with a New York truck?
- January 16, 2026 raised broker and freight-forwarder BMC-84/85 to $75,000. That is your house bond, not the truck’s BMC-91. Federal BI&PD floors did not go up.
- What is the first New York desk check?
- Look up the USDOT or MC, match legal name on L&I, then request the current permit from NYSDOT Special Hauling Permits. Thruway, NYSDOT, and NYC DOT are different desks.
as of September 2026
- September 2026: 49 CFR 387.9 dollar floors unchanged. Broker BMC-84/85 compliance date was January 16, 2026.
- September 2026: FMCSA will move to revoke USDOT/MC registrations sold or leased outside a legitimate corporate transaction.
