The International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) covers 48 U.S. states and Canadian provinces. Essentially, when your vehicle is IFTA-registered, you record the distance traveled in each state or province and pay the appropriate fuel taxes.

- Your power unit has 3 or more axles
- Your power unit has 2 axles and a gross vehicle or registered weight over 26,000 lbs.

Reviews
"Fast turnaround, knowledgeable staff, they really know how to get things done quickly. It has allowed us to move certain loads,
namely oversize/overweight that we would otherwise not have even attempted due to the operational difficulties of securing
permits for several states."
