3. Provide supporting documentation: Along with the completed form, you may need to submit additional documents, such as proof of financial responsibility, evidence of insurance coverage, and any other relevant certifications or licenses.

Who needs an OTI authority motion?

1. Freight forwarders: Freight forwarders who engage in international shipping and logistics services, particularly ocean freight, often require an OTI authority motion. This allows them to legally operate within the industry and handle cargo on behalf of shippers.
2. Non-vessel operating common carriers (NVOCCs): NVOCCs are companies that consolidate smaller shipments into larger containers for transportation. They also often need to obtain an OTI authority motion in order to operate their business legally.
3. Shippers: While shippers themselves do not need an OTI authority motion, it is important for them to work with authorized and licensed OTIs. By ensuring that the service providers they engage with hold the necessary authorizations, shippers can trust that their cargo will be handled with professionalism, compliance, and legal protection.
