IFTA Fuel Tax Reporting
IFTA (International Fuel Tax Agreement) requires carriers operating across member jurisdictions to file a quarterly return reporting fuel purchased and miles driven in each state, and to pay or receive fuel tax owed based on that split.
You don't have to use us. You can complete this yourself directly with your base jurisdiction's IFTA office. Our fee is for preparing and filing it on your behalf.
Who typically needs this
- Carriers running qualified motor vehicles in two or more IFTA member jurisdictions
- Fleets that already hold an IFTA license

- Incomplete fuel receipts leading to a larger tax bill than necessary
- Misreporting your base jurisdiction's share of miles and fuel
