HERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT KEEPING YOUR CDL AND DOT MEDICAL CARD CURRENT:
INTERSTATE NON-EXCEPTED
You must meet the Federal DOT medical certificate requirements.
INTRASTATE NON-EXCEPTED
You must meet the medical requirements for the State of Tennessee.
If you do not provide TDOSHS with your self-certification and medical certificate by January 30, 2014, TDOSHS will notify you that you are no longer medically certified to operate a CMV in non-excepted Interstate commerce. TDOSHS will then remove all your CDL privileges from your license.
SUBMIT YOUR SELF-CERTIFICATION AND MEDICAL CERTIFICATE TO TENNESSEE DEPARTMENT OF SAFETY AND HOMELAND SECURITY
Submit the following two documents:
1. SUPPLEMENTAL APPLICATION FOR COMMERCIAL DRIVER LICENSE – Visit the TN Government Website to explore the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security.
2. Copy of your valid DOT MEDICAL CARD (the medical card, not the long form). Enlarge the copy to ensure that all information is legible.

KEEP YOUR MEDICAL CARD CURRENT WITH TN DEPARTMENT OF SAFETY
The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security will be adding your medical certification status and the information on your medical examiner’s certificate to your Commercial Driver’s License System (CDLIS) record. CDL holders required to have a ”certified” medical status who fail to provide and keep up-to-date their medical examiner’s certificate with TDOSHS will become ”not-certified”.
Before your medical card expires you must have a new medical examination and obtain a new medical certificate. You are responsible for providing your valid medical certificate to TDOSHS.
If your medical card expires, TDOSHS will notify you that you are no longer medically certified to operate a CMV in non-excepted Interstate commerce. TDOSHS will then remove all your CDL privileges from your license.
You may submit your new medical certificate by mail, fax, or email, as described above
