What is the IFTA?

The International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) is an agreement among states and Canadian provinces (except Alaska, Hawaii, Yukon, and Northwest Territories) that standardizes the reporting of fuel use taxes by motor carriers operating in more than 1 member state or province. 
For more information about IFTA, current tax rate schedules, jurisdiction rates for each state and province, manuals, off-road miles, updates, and requirements, visit the IFTA website
