What Is an MC Number (Operating Authority)?
An MC Number (Motor Carrier number) is required if you plan to operate as a for-hire carrier across state lines or transport federally regulated commodities.
In short, if you’re getting paid to move goods or passengers across states, you probably need an MC Number.
