The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has issued a final rule making technical corrections to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) in 49 CFR Ch. III. The rule, effective July 21, 2026, corrects inadvertent errors and omissions, removes or updates obsolete references, and improves clarity and consistency. It does not impose new material requirements or increase compliance obligations.

Carriers, brokers, and escorts must review the updated regulations to ensure compliance. The rule includes amendments to procedures for agency review of documents filed by brokers and changes to matters of agency policy.
