DOT Medical Card FAQ
What is a DOT medical card (Form MCSA-5876)?
A DOT Medical Examiner's Certificate (Form MCSA-5876) proves that a commercial driver meets the physical qualification standards under 49 CFR Part 391.45. Drivers must carry it while operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) and renew it every 12 to 24 months depending on the medical examiner's determination.
What happens if a DOT medical card expires?
An expired DOT medical certificate means the driver is medically unqualified to operate a CMV under 49 CFR Part 391.41. A roadside inspection with an expired medical card results in an Out-of-Service (OOS) order. The driver cannot operate until they obtain a new physical and updated certificate.
How often does a DOT medical card need to be renewed?
DOT medical cards expire in 12 or 24 months, depending on the medical examiner's findings. Drivers with certain medical conditions may receive shorter-validity certificates (e.g., 3 or 6 months). GoExpirely tracks the actual expiration date on each certificate and alerts you at 90, 60, 30, and 7 days before expiry.
Who needs a DOT medical card?
Any driver operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) that crosses state lines, transports hazardous materials, or meets weight thresholds under 49 CFR Part 390.5 must hold a valid DOT medical certificate. This includes most drivers with a CDL operating under FMCSA jurisdiction.
