How Kentucky's Tax Works

Kentucky charges a weight-distance tax on heavy commercial vehicles instead of higher fuel taxes. You pay tax based on miles traveled in Kentucky multiplied by your vehicle's weight class rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the weight threshold for KYU? 59,999 lbs. Vehicles or combinations over 59,999 lbs gross or combined weight operating on Kentucky highways must have a KYU Number.

When are quarterly reports due? Same schedule as IFTA: January 31, April 30, July 31, and October 31.

What if I only pass through Kentucky occasionally? You can purchase a temporary 10-day permit instead of getting a KYU account. But if you travel Kentucky regularly, the account is more practical.

Can you file my quarterly reports? Yes. Add our State Permit Quarterly Reports service.
