New Mexico W&D Permit

from $15.00

Register for New Mexico's weight-distance tax program. Required for commercial vehicles over 26,000 lbs gross weight operating on New Mexico roads, which covers most semi-trucks, heavy straight trucks, and hot-shots.

Each vehicle needs its own permit. The base filing covers your first truck, and additional vehicles are a small add-on each. From there it's quarterly returns based on New Mexico miles and vehicle weight, on the same calendar as IFTA.

We register you with New Mexico and deliver your permits, and our State Permit Quarterly Reports service can file the returns so the deadline is never yours to remember.

Who Needs a New Mexico Permit?

You need a permit if you operate in New Mexico with a vehicle over 26,000 lbs gross weight. This includes most semi-trucks, heavy straight trucks, and hot-shots. Each vehicle needs its own permit, and adding a vehicle later is a small add-on filing.

What Happens After I Order?

We register you with New Mexico, deliver your weight-distance permit for each vehicle, and explain the quarterly reporting the account requires: tax based on New Mexico miles and vehicle weight, filed four times a year. Our State Permit Quarterly Reports service can file the returns for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

When are quarterly reports due?+

Same schedule as IFTA: January 31, April 30, July 31, and October 31.

Do I need a permit for each vehicle?+

Yes. Each vehicle operating in New Mexico needs its own weight-distance permit. The first vehicle is included in the base filing; additional vehicles are a small add-on each.

Is this separate from IFTA?+

Yes. IFTA covers fuel tax; New Mexico's weight-distance tax is charged on top, with its own account and returns, the same way Kentucky and Oregon run their programs.

What happens if I run New Mexico without a permit?+

Ports of entry and roadside enforcement check for it, and running without one means fines and a trip-permit purchase before you move on. If you run the state regularly, the account costs less than the tickets.

Can you file my quarterly reports?+

Yes. Add our State Permit Quarterly Reports service and we calculate and file your New Mexico returns every quarter.
