Connecticut Highway Use Fee Permit

$179.00

Register for Connecticut's Highway Use Fee. Required for commercial vehicles over 26,000 lbs gross weight operating on Connecticut roads, wherever the truck is based.

The program only went into effect in 2023, which makes it one of the most commonly missed registrations for carriers running the Northeast. It's charged on top of fuel taxes, with quarterly reports based on Connecticut miles, due on the same calendar as IFTA.

We register you with the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services and set up your account, and our State Permit Quarterly Reports service can handle the returns from there.

Who Needs to Register?

You need to register if you operate in Connecticut with a vehicle over 26,000 lbs gross weight. The Highway Use Fee is one of the newer state programs, in effect since 2023, so plenty of carriers running the Northeast don't know it exists until a notice shows up.

What Happens After I Order?

We register you with Connecticut DRS, set up your Highway Use Fee account, and explain the quarterly reporting that comes with it. Miles-based, filed four times a year, on the same calendar as IFTA. Our State Permit Quarterly Reports service can file them for you.
