Abstract: 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.
