IFTA Mileage Calculator Trucking Services

Prior to the introduction IFTA, commercial vehicles and trucks would need unique tax permits for each of the states that they were driving through. Port-of-Entry collection stations were erected so as to acquire the tax owed according to that states own personal fuel tax laws. This created more work for the states and lagged interstate commerce for trucking providers. When registering for the IFTA, you should think about your vehicle type, location, and tax preparation method.

When you sign up for IFTA you will do so in a specific jurisdiction, for example the state of California. It will be in this jurisdiction that you declare your IFTA fuel report and obtain either your tax refund or pay any fuel tax owed. The jurisdiction which you should register for IFTA can be where the qualifying truck is registered, where you have an established physical business, or where you file the operational records for that qualifying vehicle. The exact form number that you have to ask for will depend on the place that your applying in. On your fuel tax report form you should record any jurisdictions participating in the IFTA that you have traveled through and the fuel that you bought in that jurisdiction.

To figure out if your vehicle meets the requirements and can take part in the IFTA, you should have what is referred to as a qualifying vehicle. A qualifying vehicle is one that transports either people or commercial goods. It should also meet the following criteria: have 3 axles or more, or have 2 axles or more and weigh more than 26,000 lbs, or when used as a combination and weigh more than just 26,000 lbs. You should call the motor carrier vehicle section of that jurisdiction and ask to secure an IFTA license and decals to showcase on your auto. Once complete, you should return it to the regulating body with the required processing fee. Assuming that you meet the qualifying criteria for IFTA, you will be issued with the correct license and decals. You are now registered to participate in the IFTA program.

Every quarter you should file your fuel tax report form with the territory where you joined for IFTA. Even when you did not travel during the period, you must still file a “zero” report form. Once your record form has been processed, any net tax or compensation that is due to you will be determined, in addition to the fuel taxes that are redistributed to those states where they are due. You should earn a fuel tax report form to the mailing address which you listed when you registered for IFTA. However if you did not you can speak to the auto carrier department in your local jurisdiction.
