How to Renew Your IFTA License & Decals
Your IFTA license and decals run January to December. Renew in November or December so the new decals are on the truck in time.
What it is
The IFTA license lets you file one fuel tax return for all states. Each truck needs 2 decals (one on each side of the cab) for the current year.
When
- Renew in November - December for next year.
- Most states let you run on last year's decals until the end of February - but renew early.
- You must be up to date on your IFTA quarterly returns before a state will renew.
Steps
- 1Log in to your base state's IFTA site (the state where your truck is plated). Not sure which site? Use the official IFTA list of member jurisdictions below.
- 2Choose Renew license / Order decals for next year.
- 3Enter how many trucks need decals and pay the small fee (it varies by state).
- 4When the license and decals arrive, put the decals on both sides of the cab and keep a copy of the license in each truck.
- 5Upload the new license to your Bayloas portal: Fleet > Documents > IFTA license.
