The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act requires that farm labor contractors subject to this law who transport any

migrant and seasonal agricultural workers for agricultural employment obtain from the U.S. Department of Labor a certificate of registration. Applicants for a certificate of registration must produce evidence that the vehicles they use for this purpose meet Department of Transportation requirements. Provided below is a list of major items which should be checked. On the reverse side of this form is a brief summary of the

Department of Transportation standards for each of these items. A check (✓) should be placed adjacent to each item which meets these minimum standards. In those instances where an item does not meet these standards, necessary repairs must be completed before the

transportation of migrant and seasonal agricultural workers will be authorized. This form must be properly completed and signed, certifying that the vehicle meets Department of Transportation requirements. This inspection must be performed by an independent inspection company not affiliated with the applicant.

If the farm labor contractor possesses a valid current state vehicle safety inspection sticker from the jurisdiction in which the vehicle is registered, the items listed below need not be checked. However, in the Remarks section, the farm labor contractor must identify the state where the inspection was performed, list the appropriate state vehicle safety inspection number and license tag number and then sign and date the form.
