What is Form 2290?

IRS Form 2290 is used to report and pay HVUT (Heavy Vehicle Use Tax) for vehicles that are used on public highways and have a taxable gross weight of 55,000 pounds or more.

Note: Form 2290 is filed even if your heavy vehicle qualifies for a tax suspension and it was used less than 5,000 miles in a year (or 7,500 for farm/agricultural vehicles).

Who Should File Form 2290?

It includes:

  • Truck owners and operators
  • Fleet owners
  • Owner-operators
  • Trucking companies
  • Businesses with heavy vehicles registered in their name

When is Form 2290 Due Date for 2026?
