    Do I need to pay UCR (Unified Carrier Registration) annually if I have S Corporation and DOT number but I am leased to my motor carrier?
    Thank you.

    If your authority is active I would certainly think so.

    Yes. And the fee is relatively inexpensive if compared to the fine if you don't have it - $1000 per day.

    You said you have a DOT number. Is that your own or the number of the carrier you're leased to? The carrier pays it. If you're leased and don't have your own, you don't need to pay anything.

    I have my DOT number but I don't have MC.
    I'm leased to carrier and I'm working on his MC and DOT number.

    If your dot number isn't active then no you don't have to pay it...

    Why do you have a DOT? Do you have an intrastate authority? You don't need your own to drive under someone elses.

    I got DOT no. when I opened S corporation.
    I don't have intrastate authority.

    Why do you need a DOT for that? And no, you won't need UCR because you're not driving under your own DOT #
