Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an interstate user diesel fuel tax license?
Generally, you need this license if you operate at least one qualified motor vehicle powered by diesel fuel and · You travel only in California and Mexico; or · You travel in California and your business is based outside California in a jurisdiction that is not a member of the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA). Currently, the nonmember jurisdictions are Mexico; Alaska, Hawaii, and the District of Columbia (DC); and Canada's Nunavut, Yukon Territory, and Northwest Territories. You are not required to obtain this license; but, if you do not do so, you'll have to buy a California Fuel Trip Permit (CFTP). CFTP allows out-of-state registered trucks to enter and travel into California for four consecutive days without obtaining a license for fuel tax purposes. This permit allows California registered trucks to reenter California after traveling out of state, if they are unlicensed for fuel tax purposes. CFTP must be obtained and completed prior to entering the state.

Do I need an interstate user diesel fuel tax license if I never travel outside California?
No.

Do I need this license if my qualified motor vehicle is powered by a fuel other than diesel?
No, but you may need a different kind of fuel tax permit. Please call us for more information (see phone numbers on page 4).

Is there a charge for a license?
No. However, we may require a security deposit to cover any taxes you may owe when you close your account.

What are my responsibilities as the holder of an interstate user diesel fuel tax license?
· You must keep adequate records that document the amount of fuel purchased, used, or stored; any deductions claimed; and the number of miles your vehicles operated in California, Mexico, and any other jurisdiction (state or Canadian province or territory). Generally, you must keep records for up to four years. · You must file returns on the last day of the month following your reporting period. You must file your tax return even if you did not purchase any fuel or operate your vehicles in California during the reporting period. · You must notify us if you move, sell, or change ownership of your business. Your license is valid only for the type of ownership specified on it. You should notify us immediately if you make ownership changes or stop operating. Prompt notification will help us close your account and return any security you may have deposited. · You should notify us if you drop or add a partner. This may protect former partners from tax liabilities that occur after the partnership change. · You must provide identification numbers. You are required to provide certain identification numbers to ensure the accuracy of information provided and to protect you against fraudulent use of your identification numbers. See the disclosure information on the back page of this packet.

What is a qualified motor vehicle?
A qualified motor vehicle is a vehicle used, designed, or maintained to transport people or property that · Has two axles and a gross vehicle weight or registered gross vehicle weight of more than 26,000 pounds or 11,797 kilograms, or · Has three or more axles (power unit only) regardless of weight, or · Is used in a combination with a total weight of more than 26,000 pounds or 11,797 kilograms gross vehicle or registered gross vehicle weight. The following are not considered qualified motor vehicles: · Recreational vehicles such as motor homes (used for non-business purposes only) · Pickup trucks with attached campers · Buses used exclusively for personal use by an individual
