Prepare & File Form 2290 →IRS Form 2290 is the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) return required by the Internal Revenue Service for all highway motor vehicles with a taxable gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more. If you own or operate a heavy truck, tractor, or bus on US public highways, filing Form 2290 is a federal legal requirement.
The HVUT tax period runs from July 1 through June 30 each year. For vehicles in use during July, the filing deadline is August 31. The tax amount ranges from $100 to $550 per vehicle annually, depending on the taxable gross weight category.
After filing Form 2290, the IRS returns a stamped Schedule 1 — your official proof of HVUT payment. You must present this document to your state DMV to register or renew registration for any heavy highway vehicle. Without a valid Schedule 1, your truck cannot legally be registered.
E-filing Form 2290 through an IRS-authorized provider is the fastest and most reliable way to file. Electronic filing returns your stamped Schedule 1 in minutes, compared to weeks with paper filing. The IRS mandates e-filing for returns with 25 or more vehicles, and recommends it for all filers.
