The bond the ADOT Motor Vehicle Division can require from an Arizona IFTA licensee as a guarantee of fuel-tax reporting and payment. Most carriers never need one — when the MVD does require it, the Director sets the amount, and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard IFTA bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the MVD. Here is the whole thing:
Your carrier details, the bond amount the MVD required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to satisfy your IFTA license condition. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the MVD insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your MVD notice and the premium updates.
Arizona participates in the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA), administered here by the ADOT Motor Vehicle Division. IFTA lets an interstate motor carrier report and pay fuel-use tax through a single base-state license. Most carriers never post a bond — but the MVD can require one as a financial guarantee.
A bond is typically required when a carrier has no Arizona account history, a non-favorable record in another IFTA jurisdiction, or the MVD Director determines the interests of the state or member jurisdictions are at risk. The amount is set by the Director — a starting figure around $3,250 is common for first-time or higher-risk accounts, scaling up with exposure.
The bond stands behind the fuel-use tax you report and owe — if you fail to remit, the state can recover against it. Whatever amount the MVD set, we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
Submit the application with the amount the MVD set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
