2nd Quarter Highway Use Tax Deadline

2nd Quarter NY HUT, KYU, and New Mexico Weight Distance Tax Returns are due Wednesday, July 31, 2013.

New York Highway Use Tax (NYHUT) 

• Carriers operating certain commercial motor vehicles that weigh 18,000 lbs or greater in New York are required to register and obtain NYHUT tax credentials. Once a NYHUT account has been established, carriers must file and pay mileage tax on a quarterly basis.

Kentucky Use Tax (KYU Number) 

• All commercial motor vehicles (except buses) with a gross weight of 60,000 lbs and over traveling into or through Kentucky must be registered with the state. Carriers with an active KYU Number are then required to file a quarterly return and pay mileage taxes to Kentucky. New qualifying vehicles must be listed with Kentucky prior to the vehicle entering the state. Temporary permits are also available.

New Mexico Weight Distance Tax 

• All commercial motor vehicles with a gross weight in excess of 26,000 lbs. must be registered with the state before traveling into or through New Mexico. Entrance can be paid at the port if not registered; however, it is not cost effective to pay at the port unless you travel through New Mexico only once or twice per year. Once a Weight Distance Tax account in New Mexico is established quarterly reports must be filed and mileage tax paid.

Fuel and Use Tax 2nd Quarter Returns Due July 31st

The International Fuel Tax Agreement requires all qualified motor vehicles to file an IFTA return each quarter if the qualifying heavy vehicles were operating in at least 2 of the IFTA member jurisdictions.  

Note: The IFTA jurisdictions include the 48 contiguous states of the US and 10 Canadian provinces.  

Vehicles operating within these jurisdictions must have an IFTA license and file a quarterly IFTA return with their base jurisdiction.  A vehicle’s base jurisdiction is the state or province in which the vehicle is registered.

Information you will need to file:

• IFTA license number 
• Trip Sheets 
• Fuel Receipts

If you travel in Kentucky, New Mexico, New York and Oregon, you are required to have a Use permit in each of these states, which require monthly or quarterly returns be filed.
