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 that:

  • Has two axles and a gross vehicle weight or registered gross vehicle weight exceeding 26,000 pounds; or
  • Has three or more axles regardless of weight; or
  • Is used in combination, when the weight of such combination exceeds 26,000 pounds gross vehicle weight.

All fuel usage of gasoline, special diesel, gasohol, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in Louisiana must be reported on the quarterly IFTA tax return.

Fuel use tax

Louisiana eliminated the special fuel decals and tax filings in 2016. Special fuels are now taxed at the pumps.

Mileage/highway use taxes

There are no highway use taxes charged in the state of Louisiana.

Tax refunds or credits

IFTA

Information regarding credits or refunds under IFTA is included in the IFTA Agreement Manual.

PTO/Reefer fuel

Louisiana allows motor carriers to purchase off-road fuel tax-free, (used in power-take-off equipment) providing it is stored in a separate fuel tank, with the tank clearly marked “Not for Motor Vehicle Use.”

No credit is allowed if fuel is purchased tax-paid.

Tax credits are not allowed for off-highway fuel consumed from the same fuel tank used to propel the power vehicle.
