In addition to the emergency clearance
that was approved by OMB on September 26, 2025, for the
“Non-Domiciled Commercial Driver’s License Records” ICR, OMB
Control No. 2126-0087, FMCSA is completing the normal OMB review
process by including the 60-Day Federal Register Notice in the
relevant interim final rule titled, “Restoring Integrity to the
Issuance of Non-Domiciled Commercial Drivers Licenses” (90 FR
46509), issued on September 29, 2025, followed by publication of a
30-Day Federal Register Notice. FMCSA’s primary mission is to
ensure the safety of the Nation’s roadways. Having recently become
aware of the confusion in some States about the standards for
issuing non-domiciled CDLs, as well as the recent incidences of
crashes involving non-domiciled drivers, FMCSA must act
expeditiously to ensure that States do not continue to license such
drivers and begin taking steps to properly vet the existing holders
of non-domiciled CDLs. These actions are expected to significantly
improve the safety of commercial drivers in the United States. This
collection is intended to ensure that States retain all documents
involved in the licensing process for non-domiciled CLP and CDL
holders for a period of no less than 2 years from the date of
issuance (which includes amending, correcting, reprinting, or
otherwise duplicating a previously issued CLP or CDL),
transferring, renewing, or upgrading a non-domiciled CLP or CDL. If
States do not retain this documentation, FMCSA is severely hindered
in its efforts to ensure compliance with the regulatory
requirements because States are unable to accurately determine the
number of non-domiciled CLPs and CDLs they have issued, or to prove
to FMCSA auditors that such CLPs and CDLs were properly issued. The
IFR requires State Driver’s Licensing Agencies (SDLAs) to retain
copies of passports and Form I-94/94As provided during application
for a non-domiciled CLP or CDL, as well as copies of required SAVE
queries, and provide those records to FMCSA on request. The records
will be used to determine if non-domiciled CLPs and CDLs were
properly issued by a State. It is imperative that FMCSA begin
collecting this information as soon as the “Restoring Integrity to
the Issuance of Non-Domiciled Commercial Drivers Licenses” interim
final rule is effective.
