BOC-3 Process Service
What is a BOC-3?
A BOC-3 is a filing requirement by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and designates agents of process in each state.
Logistec/TTS is a FMCSA registered Process Service Agency that manages your BOC-3 Process Service filing. The FMCSA requires all transportation companies (motor carriers, brokers, and freight fowarders) to have a BOC-3 Process Service on file. The BOC-3 filing designates a transportation company's process service agent on record for every state in which they operate or have contracts. New transportation companies without a BOC-3 filing will not be granted their Operating Authority (MC#). Furthermore, existing transportation firms will lose their legal operating authority status without a valid BOC-3 filing.
What is a Process Agent?
A Process Agent is a representative upon whom court papers may be served in any proceeding brought against a motor carrier, broker or freight fowarder. A process agent will accept legal papers on your behalf and get them to you in a timely manner, before a judgement can be levied against you.
