What Does IFTA Stand For?
The International Fuel Tax Agreement is an arrangement between 48 of the United States and 10 Canadian provinces to report fuel used by motor carriers that operate in more than one jurisdiction (state). The IFTA fuel tax redistributes fuel taxes equally among the jurisdictions.
To show you filed your IFTA return and paid the taxes owed by the deadline, you will be issued an IFTA license and IFTA stickers. The license should be kept in your truck at all times and the IFTA stickers are displayed under your driver’s side window.
What is the Jurisdiction?
Just to clarify, jurisdiction is a state that you drive through. Your IFTA report is actually due in your base jurisdiction or home state. Your base jurisdiction is also where your truck is registered.
