About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the fuel-tax bond actually covers

Minnesota participates in the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) and the International Registration Plan (IRP), administered by Driver and Vehicle Services. Both let interstate motor carriers report and pay fuel-use tax and apportioned registration through a single base-state account. Most carriers never need a bond.

Driver and Vehicle Services can require a bond as a financial guarantee — typically for a new account, or when a carrier's filing history warrants it. The bond stands behind the fuel tax and fees the carrier collects or owes; if the carrier fails to remit, the state can recover against it.

The amount is set by Driver and Vehicle Services, often tied to the number of vehicles in the account. Whatever figure DVS names on your notice, we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check — same honest pricing as every bond we write.

Minnesota DVS — IFTA / IRPMinnesota administers IFTA and IRP through the Department of Public Safety, Driver and Vehicle Services. A surety bond is not always required, but DVS can require one as a financial guarantee for an IFTA or IRP account — often tied to the number of vehicles in the account or the carrier's filing history. Confirm the required amount on your DVS notice.
