Hazardous Materials: Modernizing Payments To and From America's Bank Account
Published August 4, 2026. Takes effect September 3, 2026. printed at 91 FR 49295. amending 49 CFR 107.
Firms that ship risky goods pay a fee. This brings the payment system up to date.
What the Rule Says It Does
This final rule modernizes the payment system for hazardous materials transportation registration fees by eliminating the option to pay by paper check and requiring electronic payment through the U.S. Department of Transportation (Department or DOT) e-Commerce internet site. This action improves processing efficiency, reduces administrative burden, and aligns payment procedures with current Government-wide electronic commerce practices.
