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.
Submit the application with the bond amount Driver and Vehicle Services set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
