What Is FMCSA Form BOC-3? Process Agent Filing in Massachusetts
If you're a motor carrier, freight broker, or freight forwarder operating in or through Massachusetts, federal law requires you to designate a process agent in Massachusetts - along with every other state you run in - through a BOC-3 filing with the FMCSA.
A process agent in Massachusetts is a person or company authorized to accept legal documents, including lawsuits and subpoenas, on your behalf within the state. Without this designation, your FMCSA operating authority is incomplete and you face fines of $16,000 or more per violation.
FastBOC3Filing.com files your BOC-3 as a professional blanket process agent service. A single $75 filing covers Massachusetts along with every other state we serve - no per-state fees - typically processed within 1 business day.

Frequently Asked Questions - BOC-3 Filing in Massachusetts
Do I need a separate BOC-3 for Massachusetts?▼
No. A single BOC-3 filing with FastBOC3Filing.com covers Massachusetts along with every other state in our network. The $75 is a one-time total, not a per-state fee.
How much does a BOC-3 filing cost for Massachusetts?▼

How long does it take to get BOC-3 coverage in Massachusetts?▼
Orders are accepted 24/7. We submit your BOC-3 to the FMCSA the same business day you order; your Massachusetts process agent designation becomes active once the FMCSA processes the filing, typically within 1 business day.
What are the penalties for not having a BOC-3 in Massachusetts?▼
Without a BOC-3 on file, your FMCSA operating authority cannot become active. Federal fines start at $16,000+ per violation, your authority can be revoked, and shippers, brokers, and load boards in Massachusetts will refuse to work with you. Filing your BOC-3 for $75 eliminates this risk entirely.
Do I need my MC number before filing a BOC-3 in Massachusetts?▼
Yes. The BOC-3 form requires your MC number, so apply for MC authority first through the FMCSA. Once your MC number is issued, file the BOC-3 immediately - your Massachusetts operating authority will show NOT AUTHORIZED on SAFER until both the MC number is granted and the BOC-3 is on file. FastBOC3 submits your BOC-3 the same business day so authority activates as fast as possible.
