In consideration of the payment of the fees described below, the Company facilitates and oversees the submission of legally mandated materials with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (the “FMCSA”) and the United States Department of Transportation (“USDOT”) on behalf of motor carrier clients and, based on information provided by its clients, provides suggestions as to which additional Services may be required.  The Company is licensed and authorized by the FMCSA and the USDOT to provide certain services though the Company is NOT affiliated with any government authority.  

Limitation of Services

The Company does not provide legal or business advice and is not a legal or business advisor.  You are ultimately responsible for the legal and business decisions associated with your company and whether your purchase of Services is ultimately required. If you have any questions or concerns as to what materials are required to be filed with any government authority in order for you to be in compliance with applicable law, you should consult independent legal counsel.  The Company only provides general information as to certain compliance measures required by the FMCSA and the USDOT’s rules and regulations based on information provided to us by you as well as currently available information collected by us from the FMCSA and the USDOT’s portal

You agree to provide us with an official email address that is checked on a regular basis. All receipts and future communications will be sent to the email you provide.

It is your responsibility to read emails from the Company and to provide any necessary or required response.  Any request or demand by the Company via email that is not given a response or not satisfied after 3 attempts or 30 days, whichever is earlier, shall be a material breach of these Terms of Service, and we shall not be responsible for any damages or liabilities for any failure to respond to such demands or requests.

Delivery of Services

The Company provides services only.  By engaging us for any of our Services, you understand that no physical product will be delivered (unless otherwise requested or agreed) and all of our services are done electronically. 

Specific Services

Designation of Agents of Service of Process (the “BOC-3”)

The Company will submit the BOC-3 on your behalf and engage our process agents in all 50 states and the District of Columbia (“Process Agents”) to act as your agent for the acceptance of service of process, subject to these terms and conditions (“Process Services”).

BOC-3 Fees, Payments and Payment Methods

By engaging the Company to provide Process Services, you agree to a discounted, recurring and automatically charged yearly fee of $20 (the “Yearly Fee”) and either:

(i) a one-time setup fee of $15 if you submit your application online, or
(ii) a one-time setup fee of $40 if you file with one of our agents over the phone.

A valid form of payment includes a credit card or a debit card by Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover. We do not accept any prepaid cards, and in the event a prepaid card is used to pay for a BOC-3 service, we reserve the right to cancel BOC-3 service, unless a valid credit card is provided to replace the primary payment information on file.

The Yearly Fee shall be unconditionally due and automatically payable upon each anniversary date of the Company’s submission of your BOC-3 (the “Renewal Date”) unless you cancel Services as provided in these Terms of Service (Reference section: Cancellation of Process Services). You agree and authorize the Company, through its third-party payment processor, Stripe, Inc., to automatically charge your credit card for any applicable fees, whether recurring or one-time fees, and you agree to make payments using that selected payment method on a recurring basis until Process Services are terminated and cancelled. Your credit card must be issued by a major credit card company acceptable to the Company and must remain valid and on file with Stripe, Inc. These Terms of Service are subject to any terms of service, privacy policy and other terms and conditions of Stripe, Inc. service, which can be found at: stripe.com.

We do not send a confirmation email for the BOC-3 filing on your renewal date but you will receive an automatic receipt of such charges via email.

Service Fees (Service of Process)

If the Company receives service of process on your behalf,

(i) You shall automatically be charged a fee of $150 for the receipt and processing of documents; provided, if your account is active in good standing and you are not otherwise in breach of these Terms of Service, the Company shall waive this fee. 
(ii) In addition, you shall be responsible for the payment of any applicable fees associated with such service, including but not limited to: Process Agent fees, law enforcement and process server engagement for personal service, notary fees, postage and handling, and, provided your account is in good standing, a discounted fee of $120 per document received and processed by the Company and forwarded to you by the Company (the “Servicing Fee”). The Servicing Fee only includes documents to be forwarded by email, if you request or require delivery by any other means (overnight courier, etc.), additional fees will apply.

Payment of any applicable fees charged for Services are automatically charged to your credit card.   All fees due and owing must be fully paid before any document served upon the company on your behalf is forwarded to you. 

Declined or refused charges are subject to a finance charge equal to 25% of the declined or refused charges if not paid after 30 days from the due date thereof and a charge of $400/year  for unauthorized use of our legal name with the US Department of Transportation while your MC number is active . Declined or refused charges shall constitute a material breach of these Terms of Service and any discounts afforded by the Company for the Yearly Fee and Servicing Fees shall no longer apply (including for the declined or refused charges). The non-discounted Yearly Fee and Servicing Fees shall continue to be charged if your account remains active. The full, non-discounted Yearly Fee is $60 for active accounts and the full, non-discounted Servicing Fee is $250 per document received, processed and forwarded to you.

Service of Process

As soon as reasonably practicable after service of process is accepted by a Process Agent, the Company will notify you by email of such service and include scanned copies of any documents received as part the service process. If any documents are required by law to be served in person, we shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver through contact information that is available to us from the USDOT and/or FMCSA, but in no event shall we be responsible for any failure to contact you other than via email as set forth herein.

Waiver and Release of Liability

You hereby release, waive any claim against, and forever discharge the Company from any responsibility or liability which may arise from any delay or failure in forwarding materials which is a result of your failure to pay any outstanding fees or to provide, maintain and monitor the email address you provide to the Company. At any time after Process Services are terminated for any reason, and the Company is served with process on your behalf, we will make reasonable efforts to contact you in order to facilitate the dispatch of any materials received but we shall not be responsible for any failure in either contacting you or successfully dispatching materials we receive.  Fees associated with dispatching such materials are not subject to the above discounted fee but shall be separately invoiced and must be paid before dispatch is initiated.

Process Agents

By engaging us to provide Process Services, we are providing you with access to our Process Agents for the sole purpose of accepting service upon the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service. Any other contact or engagement of our Process Agents, whether in relation to the Services or otherwise, is strictly forbidden and shall be a material breach of these Terms of Service. Any unauthorized contact with Process Agents, or unauthorized use of their legal name and physical address shall subject the Process Services to cancellation and additional fees and expenses (minimum of automatic $199.00, and $400 for unauthorized use of our legal name under the BOC-3 filing while the BOC-3 is being removed), which fees and expenses you hereby agree to be due and owing.

No Refunds After BOC-3 Filing

THERE ARE NO REFUNDS (EITHER PARTIALLY OR IN FULL) FOR FEES AFTER THE BOC-3 IS FILED OR WHEN A RENEWAL OF SERVICES IS INITIATED OR MISTAKES  ON THE USER’S SIDE THAT WE CAN NOT CONTROL, SUCH AS SUBMITTING MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS ON OUR WEBSITE. You can cancel Process Services at any time and any payments not yet due and owing for such services shall be cancelled.

Contact Information Changes

You are responsible for immediately informing us of any changes to your business which would require notifying the FMCSA or USDOT of such changes, including but not limited to any name change (legal name or dba), address change, termination of operations or change to any representative authority. We do not regularly request this information or monitor those changes with the FMCSA or USDOT. Any change of information to the filed BOC-3 that is not reported shall cause the BOC-3 to automatically expire. The Company shall not be responsible for any penalties or fees arising from any expiration of a BOC-3 which are a result of any failure to meet your obligations to notify us of changes in information.

Cancellation of Process Services

Cancellation requests by phone or if they are submitted directly on our website from our “Contact Us” page are not valid and will not be processed. 

For a cancelation request to be valid:

  1. It needs to be submitted in writing by sending an email to contact@fmcsaprocessingagent.com.
  2. Your request must be sent from the same email address that is associated with your account.
  3. It must contain your company’s name, and your DOT and MC/FF Numbers.
  4. Your request must include a reason for cancellation.

Notice of cancellation of the BOC-3 must be received by the Company at least 3 business days before the Renewal Date in order to avoid incurring a Yearly Fee and before the credit card on file is automatically charged. If a cancellation request is received within 3 business days of the Renewal Date, we will make every effort to cancel your subscription though cancellation is not guaranteed, and your credit card will still be charged for the upcoming renewal charge. It is your responsibility to immediately inform us if you wish to cancel Process Services for any reason. Any fee incurred or charged as a result of a failure to cancel Process Services in accordance with these Terms of Service, including any Yearly Fee or other fee automatically charged to your credit card, is non-refundable and you hereby acknowledge that such fees are unconditionally due and owing. Any action by the FMCSA or USDOT which deactivates or cancels your BOC-3 or the authority to operate as a motor carrier shall not act as a cancellation of Services; cancellation of Services can only be completed as set out in these Terms of Services. We do not actively monitor the status of your BOC-3 or authority to operate with the FMCSA or USDOT and we shall not be liable for any cancellation or deactivation. You are solely responsible for ensuring that information and status of authority with the FMCSA and USDOT is accurate, active and current.

YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A REFUND IF YOU FAIL TO CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AFTER YOUR DUE DATE AND AFTER YOUR CREDIT CARD IS CHARGED.

Effect of Process Services Cancellation

Upon the cancellation of Process Services, for any reason, any obligation that the Company may have, including any obligation to notify you of any further service of process, shall automatically terminate.  

After canceling Processing Services, the Company MUST be removed as your representative of record with the FMCSA to receive legal documents on your behalf in all 50 states and Washington D.C. Upon cancellation for any reason, we will provide you notice of the options to remove our name with the FMCSA and you will have 7 days from such notice to either 

  1. Elect to have the Company process the removal (there is a $55.00 charge for the Company to remove our name as your process agent ($25.00 notary fee + $30.00 processing fee)), or
  2. If you currently have an active operating authority, file a new BOC-3 with another named process agent before your upcoming due date, in which case our name will be automatically removed.  

Should you fail to take steps to remove our name as processing agent after the 14-day notice, and

  1.  If your authority remains “ACTIVE” with the FMCSA, and the Company is still named as processing agent, or
  2. If your authority is listed as “INACTIVE”, “DISMISSED” or “REVOKED” with the FMCSA, and you attempt to reactive your authority with the Company named as processing agent,

then in each case your account will be subject to additional fees.  Any discounted fees otherwise provided shall be terminated though you shall remain responsible for the payment of all non-discounted fees (including a $60 Yearly Fee and $250 Servicing Fee). In addition, should your account become delinquent, and you continue to operate with the Company named as processing agent with the FMCSA, a fee of $400 will automatically be charged for the unauthorized use of our name.  If the Company has to pursue collections of amounts due and owing through a third-party provider (including any amounts for fees described in these Terms of Service), you agree that all amounts outstanding and payable shall be subject to an administrative fee equal to 35% of such amounts outstanding.  You agree that all fees charged while your account is delinquent are reasonable in light of the fact that it would be otherwise difficult to determine the amount of damages the Company would suffer for failure to keep your account current.  The above fees are not exclusive remedies of the Company and you shall be responsible for any and all damages, fees, expenses and costs incurred by the Company for your breach of this Agreement, including damages incurred as a result of your unauthorized use of our name and costs incurred in pursuing termination of your unauthorized use of our name, including the Company’s reasonable attorneys’ fees. In addition, in the event that you fail to remove our name with the FMCSA, you hereby irrevocably appoint the Company, its agents, representatives and attorneys, as your lawful attorney-in-fact for the purpose of taking all necessary actions to remove the Company as your authorized representative with the FMSCA.  Your appointment of the Company as your attorney-in-fact, and all of the Company’s rights and powers associated with such appointment, which is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Company is removed as your authorized representative. All persons dealing with the Company, its agents, representatives and attorneys, as your attorney-in-fact, shall be entitled to rely upon this power of attorney for the purposes stated herein.

Process Services for Partners

By engaging the Company to provide Process Services through a partner account, we provide Process Services (through your company, the “Partner”) to third party clients at a one-time discounted rate. You understand that you will be responsible for all applicable discounted filing fees (these filing fees are communicated to you when you engage us for Services and an account is created) before any of those Services are rendered.  Your credit card must be issued by a major credit card company acceptable to the Company and must remain valid and on file with Stripe, Inc.  You agree and authorize the Company to automatically charge your credit card for any applicable fees and such fees must be paid prior to providing any Services.  Except for the Yearly Fee and one-time set-up fee for Process Services, you agree and understand that the Process Services, we provide to you as a Partner and to your clients are governed by these Terms of Service Agreement covered under the BOC-3 section, including the payment of all applicable fees (save and except the one-time set-up fee and Yearly Fee).

No Refunds

You agree to provide your client’s contact information, including email and phone number. You also agree to communicate to your client that they will need to update us if their email or phone number changes in the future. They will also need to update us if their carrier is inactive, out of service or suspended.  You agree to communicate to your client that they cannot contact our Process Agents in violation of these Terms of Services and that doing so will be a material breach for which you and your client will both be jointly and severally liable.

Process Agents

As a Partner, we are providing you with access to our Process Agents for the sole purpose of accepting service on behalf of your clients upon the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service.  You acknowledge and agree that the Company has spent a considerable amount of time and resources in order to identify and engage its Process Agents to assist us in providing the Services and that any interference with that engagement would be materially detrimental to the business of the Company. Therefore, you agree not to, either directly or indirectly, engage, solicit or otherwise contact our Process Agents for any reason. Any contact or engagement of our Process Agents, whether in relation to the Services or otherwise, is strictly forbidden and shall be a material breach of these Terms of Service.  Any unauthorized contact with our Process Agents shall subject the Process Services provided to your client to cancellation.  In addition, the Company may pursue all rights and remedies available to it law and at equity, including injunctive relief, in the case of such unauthorized contact.  You agree and acknowledge that the restrictions contained herein, and the remedies available to the Company in the case of a breach of such restrictions, are reasonable in light of the Company’s legitimate business interests.

You are responsible to provide all the requested information and all requested documents in a timely manner after the Company begins preparing an application. You have 60 days from the date of payment for OA Services to provide us all the required and requested information and documents set out in the work order.

There is no date by which an application must be processed, and only approximate processing dates are provided by the FMCSA and USDOT. If an application is dismissed for any reason, we will notify you by email of such cancellation. If it is determined that you must reapply for operating authority, a new work order must be requested and payment for OA Services must be resubmitted prior to the Company initiating any further services. Previously paid fees will not be credited to any reapplications.

Refunds, Follow-Up Services

Partial refunds are available if you cancel OA Services at any time prior to our submission of an application for operating authority and payment we make for required fees.
