State Requirements Georgia IFTA Licensing

So, who needs an IFTA sticker?  The state of Georgia is a member of the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA).  This means that truckers are required to obtain an IFTA Georgia license if Georgia is their base jurisdiction and they will travel interstate with a qualified motor vehicle.  A qualified motor vehicle is defined as one that is designed, used, or maintained for transporting people or property. The vehicle must have two or more axles and GVW or registered weight exceeding 26,000 pounds or have three or more axles regardless of weight.

IFTA was created to provide a more efficient method of reporting and disbursing IFTA fuel taxes among the jurisdictions.  Members include 48 contiguous states in the U.S. and 10 Canadian provinces. Drivers who travel in these jurisdictions are required to submit their Georgia IFTA fuel tax forms each quarter before the due date to avoid fines, penalties, or legal action. The IFTA fuel taxes are filed with the base jurisdiction each quarter according to the due dates below:

 

Quarterly IFTA Due Dates

Q1 January – March April 30
Q2 April – June July 31
Q3 July – September October 31
Q4 October – December January 31

If you have more than one qualified vehicle, you’ll need additional IFTA stickers for those cabs as well.  You must also carry a copy of the license in each vehicle.
