Maine IFTA Filing

Before the introduction IFTA, commercial vehicles and trucks would need different tax permits for every of the states that they were driving through. Port-of-Entry collection stations were erected to secure the tax owed according to that states own individual fuel tax laws. This created more work for the states and stalled interstate commerce for trucking enterprises. When registering for the IFTA, you should consider your vehicle type, location, and tax preparation method.

When you sign up for IFTA you will accomplish this in a specific district, for example the state of California. It will be in this jurisdiction that you index your IFTA fuel report and receive either your tax refund or pay any fuel tax owed. The jurisdiction which you need to register for IFTA can be where the qualifying automobile is registered, where you have an established physical address, or where you file the operational records for that qualifying vehicle. The exact form number that you have to seek will depend on the territory that your applying in. On your fuel tax report form you should record any jurisdictions entering the IFTA that you have traveled through and the fuel that you bought in that jurisdiction.

For you to figure out if your vehicle meets the requirements and can compete the IFTA, you need to have what is called a qualifying vehicle. A qualifying vehicle is one that delivers either people or commercial goods. It should also meet the following qualifications: have 3 axles or more, or have 2 axles or more and weigh greater than 26,000 lbs, or when used as a combination and weigh at least 26,000 lbs. You should call the motor carrier vehicle section of that jurisdiction and ask to secure an IFTA license and decals to present on your automobile. Once complete, you should submit it to the regulating body with the requested processing fee. Assuming that you meet the requirements for IFTA, you will be issued with the correct license and decals.
