All employers of CDL drivers must purchase a query plan in the Clearinghouse. This query plan enables employers, and their consortia/third-party administrators (C/TPAs), to conduct queries of driver Clearinghouse records as required per § 382.701. Query plans may only be purchased from the FMCSA Clearinghouse website by registered employers.

The Clearinghouse uses Pay.gov, a secure government website, to process query plan payments. Payment methods include:

• Electronic funds transfer (EFT) from a checking or savings account (ACH)
• Amazon Pay, PayPal
• Debit or credit card

FMCSA does not accept mailed checks or purchase orders for query plans.

Download the Query Plans Factsheet to learn more, or download the How to Purchase a Query Plan job aid to get started.

These resources and more are also available in the Clearinghouse Learning Center.
