The International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) Texas Form 56-101 is a crucial documentation for license holders operating under IFTA in Texas, offering a standardized approach to reporting fuel usage by commercial vehicles across member jurisdictions. This form, alongside its supplements, plays a significant role in determining the tax obligations based on the types of fuel consumed by vehicles during their operations. Licensees are required to file this form quarterly, ensuring that any changes in operation, such as no operation, license cancellation, or address changes, are accurately reported. The form meticulously categorizes fuel types, including diesel, gasoline, ethanol, propane (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and others, requiring precise calculations to determine the tax due or refundable. Penalties are determined for late filings or underpayments, with specific provisions detailed for computing these fines, emphasizing the form's role in maintaining compliance and streamlining tax processes for interstate carriers. Taxpayers must ensure accuracy and punctuality in filing, with electronic submissions providing a convenient option to meet these obligations. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts facilitates additional guidance, reinforcing the importance of this form in the broader context of fuel tax reporting under the IFTA framework in Texas.
