What Are Interstate and Intrastate Authorities?

If your trucking business operates only within California, you fall under intrastate regulations. If you cross state lines, even occasionally, you are considered an interstate carrier and must meet both state and federal requirements.

Intrastate authority applies when your trucking operations are limited to a single state, for example, if you haul goods only within California. Interstate authority is required when your trucking business operates across state lines, even if it’s just once. This includes hauling freight from California to another state or passing through multiple states to deliver a load.

Each authority level comes with its own filing requirements, timelines, and documentation. That’s where we come in.
