  • Weight Requirements  If you cross state lines with a truck or semi-tractor and trailer weighing 26,001-lbs or more and are leased to a trucking company that provides IFTA fuel tax stickers and an IFTA fuel tax cab-card for your truck, you will not need to register for IFTA fuel tax.  Otherwise, if your plate is 26,001-lbs or more, or if your loaded truck weighs 26,001-lbs or more, or if you have a 3-axle truck that weighs under 26,000-lbs, or 26,000-lbs, or is more than 26,000-lbs and you cross state lines, you will need to register for IFTA fuel tax and be issued an IRP / Apportioned license plate.  If you have a straight truck with 3 or more axles, and the gross weight is 26,000-lbs. or under, or if the loaded weight is 26,001-lbs. or more and you cross state lines, you will need to register for IFTA fuel tax.    If you have a straight truck pulling a trailer and the combined weights when loaded are 26,001-lbs or more and you cross state lines, you will need to register for IFTA fuel tax.   This applies to commercial vehicles that are For-Hire, Private commercial vehicles and Farm-plated vehicles crossing state lines  with vehicles described above. 
  • IFTA Fuel Tax Reporting  Your home state will issue IFTA fuel tax credentials to you.  In the month following each Quarter, you will need to submit a Quarterly IFTA fuel tax report with the mileages driven in each state and fuel purchased in each state during the Quarter to the IFTA fuel tax department of your home state.   For the first Quarter of January, February and March, the report needs to be compleded and submitted to the IFTA fuel tax department in April.  The second Quarter report needs to be submitted to the IFTA fuel tax department in July, the third Quarter IFTA fuel tax report in October and the fourth Quarter IFTA fuel tax report in January of the following year.

 

  • IFTA Fuel Tax Record Keeping Requirements  You will be required by the state for the IFTA fuel tax to keep accurate records of all trip mileages and fuel purchases you make - loaded, empty or bob-tailing.  In the event of an IFTA fuel tax state audit, you can use your log book to keep records of all trips and mileages as long as the State Auditor can obtain accurate mileages from your log book, including mileage readings every time you cross state lines.  Or you can use trip sheets to record the mileages and gallons of fuel purchased.  Typically, an Auditor will need to know what routes you will have taken and the mileage readings from your odometer every time you cross state lines.  All trucks with IFTA stickers are subject to an IFTA fuel tax audit.  These can be random audits, or triggered by inaccurate reporting, such as rounding off mileages (300, 500, 650, 900 etc) at the time you complete and submit your IFTA fuel tax reports.  We do Quarterly IFTA fuel tax reporting for all states and Weight - Distance tax reporting for the Weight - Distance tax states.  Contact us if you would like us to do the IFTA fuel tax reporting for you.
