International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA)
IFTA applies to qualified vehicles operating in more than one IFTA jurisdiction. A qualified motor vehicle is a motor vehicle used, designed, or maintained for transportation of persons or property and:
- Having two axles and a gross vehicle weight or registered gross vehicle weight exceeding 11,797 kilograms (26,000 pounds); or
- Having three or more axles regardless of weight; or
- Is used in combination, when the weight of such combination exceeds 11,797 kilograms (26,000 pounds) gross vehicle weight.
A qualified motor vehicle does not include recreational vehicles.
Saskatchewan imposes a fuel tax on gasoline, special diesel, gasohol, propane, ethanol, methanol, E-85, M-85, A55, and biodiesel.
Recordkeeping requirements are summarized at tinyurl.com/SKfuel.
Fees

Temporary decal permit
A 30-day temporary decal permit is available when a carrier puts new vehicles into service but has not yet received the permanent decals. The temporary permit(s) will be sent to the carrier by fax and must be carried along with the carrier’s valid IFTA license. The temporary permit is used until permanent decals are issued.
Fuel tax rates
The Saskatchewan provincial fuel tax rate is currently $0.15 per litre for Diesel and unleaded, premium and ethanol-blended gasoline. Propane is charged at the rate of $0.09 per litre. Also, as noted at the beginning of the Canadian section, the Canadian federal government charges both the 5% GST and an excise tax per litre on all fuel purchases.
