Alabama IRP 44 Form PDF Details

The IRP-44/IFTA-20 is the official Individual Vehicle Distance and Fuel Record for commercial carriers operating across two or more IFTA member jurisdictions. Carriers must maintain a completed record for each vehicle trip and retain those records for at least four years in case of an audit by state revenue authorities.

Regulated by the Alabama Department of Revenue, the form requires carriers to document trip routes, odometer readings, and fuel purchases. Each entry must capture the following required information:

• Carrier identification: company name, mailing address, FEIN or SSN
• Vehicle details: truck unit number, trailer number, driver name, and fuel type
• Trip route: origin, final destination, and all states and major highways traveled
• Odometer readings: beginning and ending readings to calculate total trip mileage
• Fuel purchases: date, city, state, gallons purchased, and total cost per stop

Fuel purchase records allow each state to calculate its apportioned fuel tax based on miles driven within its borders. Carriers who also file the Individual Vehicle Distance and Fuel Report will recognize the overlapping data requirements. Related IRP forms include the IRP-5 and IRP-29.

The Alabama Department of Revenue may audit these records to verify IFTA quarterly returns and IRP apportionment calculations. Keeping organized, trip-by-trip records protects carriers from penalties for underreported mileage or fuel data.
