67 ELDs revoked since January. 2 more just made the list.
FMCSA revoked 67 electronic logging devices since January 2025, with Safe ELD and MYLOGS ELD carriers having until July 7, 2026 to replace devices or face out-of-service orders. This represents an aggressive enforcement campaign affecting trucking companies that handle ecommerce deliveries.
Supply chain disruptions are likely as trucking companies scramble to replace non-compliant devices, potentially affecting last-mile delivery costs and speed for marketplace sellers. Monitor your logistics partners' ELD compliance status to avoid shipment delays during the transition period.
Regulatory enforcement in logistics creates supply chain friction that ultimately impacts ecommerce fulfillment costs and delivery reliability. This reflects broader compliance tightening across commerce-supporting industries.
Audit your 3PL and shipping partners to confirm they're not using revoked ELD devices - check the FMCSA registered device list to avoid delivery disruptions.
Build buffer time into Q3 inventory planning as trucking capacity may tighten during the 60-day compliance window ending July 7, 2026.
Bottom Line
ELD device revocations could disrupt trucking capacity and increase shipping costs.

Full Coverage
FMCSA announced today the removal of Safe ELD (both iOS and Android versions) and MYLOGS ELD from the agency’s list of registered electronic logging devices. Safe ELD is manufactured by Bemorex, Inc. MYLOGS ELD is manufactured by Mylogs Inc. Both failed to meet the minimum technical requirements established in 49 CFR Appendix A to Subpart B of Part 395.
That is not news by itself. ELD revocations have been happening for years. What makes this one worth paying attention to is the number that FMCSA Administrator Derek Barrs put on the record today. Sixty-seven devices removed since January 2025. In roughly 16 months.
When I wrote about the Gorilla Fleet Safety revocations last May, eight devices were removed from the registry at once. AllwaysTrack. Command Alkon Trackit. ELDX. Gorilla Safety Compact ELD. HCSS ELD. LB Technologies FleetTrack HOS. Simplex ELD 2GO. Trucker Path ELD Pro. That felt like a big number at the time.
It was a Tuesday afternoon compared to what has happened since. As of today, the FMCSA registered ELD list includes approximately 1,050 devices, all self-certified by manufacturers. The revoked list now carries over 250 devices. Sixty-seven of those revocations have come in the last 16 months alone. That is not a periodic housekeeping exercise.
That is an enforcement campaign. And Barrs made clear in today’s announcement that it is not slowing down. window. googletag = window. googletag || {cmd: []}; googletag. cmd. push(function() {googletag. defineSlot('/21776187881/FW-Responsive-Main_Content-Slot1', [[300, 100], [320, 50], [728, 90], [468, 60]], 'div-gpt-ad-1709668545404-0').

display('div-gpt-ad-1709668545404-0'); }); “Since January 2025, FMCSA has taken decisive action, removing 67 noncompliant devices that failed to meet federal standards, to protect the integrity of the ELD program, and we will continue to identify and remove any device that falls short,” Barrs said.
If you are running Safe ELD on iOS or Android, or MYLOGS ELD, here is the timeline. Stop using the revoked device. Today. Revert to paper logs or compliant logging software to record your hours-of-service data. You need a record of duty status and the device you have been using no longer qualifies as one.
Replace the device with a compliant ELD from the FMCSA-registered list before July 7, 2026. That is a 60-day window. It sounds like a lot of time. It is not. Ordering a new device, getting it installed, getting your drivers trained on it, and configuring your back-office systems to pull data from it takes longer than most carriers think.
Between now and July 7, FMCSA is telling roadside enforcement officers not to cite drivers using the revoked devices for 395. 8(a)(1) or 395. 22(a). Instead, they should ask for paper logs or use the ELD display as a backup to review hours-of-service data. That is the grace period. Use it. On July 7, the grace period ends.
If a driver is still using Safe ELD or MYLOGS ELD after that date, the driver will be cited for operating without an ELD and placed out of service under CVSA criteria. That means the truck stops. The load does not move.
And your company has a violation on its record that shows up in SMS, in inspection reports, and in every broker and shipper vetting system that pulls FMCSA data. This keeps happening because the ELD certification model in the United States is fundamentally broken. I wrote about this a year ago and nothing has changed. window. googletag = window.

collapseEmptyDivs(); googletag. enableServices(); }); googletag. cmd. push(function() {googletag. display('div-gpt-ad-1665767553440-0'); }); ELD providers in the U. S. self-certify their devices. That means the manufacturer completes a form stating that their device meets the technical specifications in 49 CFR Part 395 Appendix A. Nobody tests it.
Nobody verifies it. Nobody from FMCSA plugs the device in and checks whether it actually does what the manufacturer says it does. The device is added to the registered list. Carriers buy it. Drivers use it. Then, months or years later, the FMCSA discovers that the device does not meet the standard and pulls it off the list.
At that point, the manufacturer has already collected the revenue. The carriers have already integrated the device into their operations. The drivers have already been trained on it. And now everyone has 60 days to start over. Canada does not do it this way. Canada requires third-party certification before car
