This website allows for the use of credit cards to pay civil penalties addressed in a Notice of Claim (NOC) to a Respondent. A Respondent is either a motor carrier, driver, shipper, freight forwarder or broker. In order to ensure that your payment is properly credited, it is essential that you fill in this form completely. For clarification: - The Enforcement Case Number is referenced on the first page of the NOC. Enter it exactly as it appears on the NOC. For example, PA-2004-1234-PA9999.
- If you are paying a penalty for a motor carrier, shipper or freight forwarder, you must also enter the USDOT Number for the company. A USDOT Number is not required for a Respondent who is a driver or broker.
It is important to verify the accuracy of the information you have entered. Failure to correctly complete this transaction may result in your payment not being credited to your account. This could subject your operations to an order to cease operating in interstate commerce. If your submission is not accepted after three attempts, or if you have questions regarding policies or procedures related to FMCSA fine payments, please contact the FMCSA Service Center noted on the NOC for assistance. |
