FAQ

BMC-84 Freight Broker Bond questions answered

Any company or individual applying for or holding FMCSA freight broker authority (MC number) must maintain a $75,000 BMC-84 surety bond or trust fund. This includes property freight brokers, household goods brokers, and freight forwarders.
The BMC-84 bond is a $75,000 federal bond. Annual premiums are higher than state bonds due to the larger bond amount and federal regulatory requirements. Rates depend on credit — typically $900–$2,500/year for most applicants. Poor credit can be $3,000–$5,000+/year.
After your bond is issued, your surety company files it electronically with FMCSA, typically within 1 business day. You can verify your bond status at the FMCSA licensing & insurance portal online.
BMC-84 is a traditional surety bond issued by an insurance company. BMC-85 is a trust fund alternative where you deposit $75,000 with a bank as a self-insurance option. Most freight brokers use the BMC-84 surety bond because it requires no cash deposit — just the annual premium.
