KAR 1:200. Administration of taxes imposed in KRS 138.655 through 138.7291.

 

      RELATES

TO: KRS 138.655-138.7291, 186.650, 49 C.F.R. 390.21, 49 U.S.C. 317

      STATUTORY

AUTHORITY: KRS 138.725(1), 281.600, 49 U.S.C. 317

      NECESSITY,

FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: 49 U.S.C. 31705 and KRS 138.227 authorize the

department to enter into the provisions of the International Fuel Tax Agreement

(IFTA). If a motor carrier operates in interstate commerce, the motor fuel

taxes imposed by Kentucky statutes that are subject to the provisions of IFTA

are KRS 138.660(1) and (2). If the motor carrier operates exclusively in intrastate

commerce, the taxes imposed by KRS 138.660(1) and (2) are not subject to the

requirements of IFTA. The tax imposed by KRS 138.660(3) is not subject to the

IFTA federal mandate. All three (3) of these taxes are administered under the

provisions of KRS 138.655 through 138.7291. This administrative regulation establishes

the administrative procedures for the implementation of the International Fuel

Tax Agreement in Kentucky, establishes the differences between the requirements

of IFTA and Kentucky state law, establishes if the provisions of IFTA preempt

state law, and provides for uniformity in the interstate and intrastate

administration of KRS 138.660(1) and (2) so as not to violate the interstate

commerce clause of the United States Constitution.
