Questions this page answers
Is an FMC OTI license the same as an FMCSA MC number?
No. FMC covers ocean OTIs/NVOCCs; FMCSA covers interstate motor property brokers and carriers. Confirm the correct register for the product.
Does a BrokerMafia NVOCC row mean FMC licensing?
No. Indexed ≠ licensed. Re-check the FMC OTI search for the legal name.
Is a BrokerMafia agency page an endorsement?
No. Index ≠ endorsement. BrokerMafia is not a government agency and does not issue licenses.
