How to set up Login.gov for FMCSA systems

Start at Motus, the Clearinghouse, or the other official FMCSA page you need, then choose the Login.gov sign-in option. Beginning from the agency helps return you to the correct service after authentication.

Create the Login.gov account with an address you personally control and can recover. When FMCSA instructs an existing company official to use an email already associated with the company record, follow that agency-specific instruction.

Login.gov supports several security methods. Set up a backup method when available so a lost phone does not become a lost company-access problem.

Enter your information carefully and use clear, uncropped ID images without glare. Login.gov may offer online or in-person verification options depending on the partner agency and situation.

A successful Login.gov sign-in does not automatically grant access to a carrier or assign the correct Clearinghouse role. Finish the company, employer, driver, or C/TPA connection inside the FMCSA service.

Keep the personal key and backup authentication method in a secure place. Do not put passwords, Social Security numbers, ID images, or authentication codes in the compliance tracker.
