Kansas Weight-Distance Tax

No weight-distance or highway-use tax in Kansas. Nothing per-mile to permit or file. You still run under the shared floor: IFTA fuel tax filed quarterly, an IRP apportioned plate, and the federal 2290 HVUT (IRS Form 2290) at 55,000 lb and up, whose stamped Schedule 1 you need to register. The Kansas Department of Revenue, Division of Vehicles handles IRP and IFTA. No state mileage credential is required at the scale house.
