Electronic DMV Submission

You no longer have to take your DOT medical card to the DMV to self certify. The DMV no longer accepts medical cards from drivers or medical examiners. The DMV only accepts submissions from the National Registry.

---

• Electronic Submission:
Medical Examiners electronically upload results of DOT physical examinations, along with any required restrictions or variances, to the National Registry by midnight (local time) of the next calendar day for Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) or Commercial Learner’s Permit (CLP) holders.

• FMCSA Forwarding:
The FMCSA will then transmit the exam results to the state licensing agencies responsible for issuing and managing CDL licenses within 3-5 business days.
