Note: These are state DMV fees only. Vendor markups (Checkr, SambaSafety, Foley, etc.) typically add $5-15 per MVR for processing, identity verification, and continuous-monitoring service.
CDLIS supplementary fee
A CDLIS pull (national CDL Information System, separate from any single state's MVR) is typically $1-3 depending on the vendor. Useful for cross-state convictions that haven't synced to the home-state record yet.
Fleet-cost calculator example
50-driver fleet, all single-state Texas drivers:
- 50 × $6.50 = $325/year minimum (state fees)
- Plus vendor markup: 50 × $12 = $600/year (Checkr or similar)
- Total: ~$925/year
50-driver fleet, mixed multi-state (10 in OK, 10 in IL, 10 in TX, 10 in CA, 10 in MO):
- 10 × $25.00 (OK) = $250
- 10 × $20.00 (IL) = $200
- 10 × $6.50 (TX) = $65
- 10 × $2.00 (CA) = $20
- 10 × $0.12 (MO) = $1.20
- Total state fees: ~$536
- Plus vendor markup ~$600
- Total: ~$1,136/year
Continuous monitoring vs annual pulls
- Annual pull only: state fee per driver per year (above)
- Continuous monitoring: typically $3-15/driver/month subscription + state fees for any "events" detected
- Annual cost for 50 drivers: ~$1,800-9,000/year just for monitoring
- But catches mid-year violations + insurance discounts often offset
Most carriers run BOTH: annual pull for DQF + continuous monitoring for risk management.
When this skill fires
If the user is:
- Budgeting compliance costs for next year
- Comparing vendor options (Checkr vs SambaSafety etc.)
- Wondering why an MVR pull cost so much
- Building a multi-state expansion model
Look up the relevant state's fee from the table. If the user is in a state not listed, recommend they call the state DMV directly — fees change annually.
Where this fits in X3
X3 hard-codes the state MVR fee table in _shared/twilio.ts getMvrStateFeeCents() (now extended to all states). This feeds the passthrough_cost_cents field on vendor_orders so customers see the true cost of an MVR.
