Anyone who operates a truck or other vehicle categorized as a Heavy Highway Use Vehicle on public highways must complete Form 2290 (Heavy Highway Use Vehicle tax return) and pay excise tax. All truck owners can now file and pay electronically using IRS e-file.

IRS e-file is the best way to prepare and file your Form 2290 excise tax. IRS e-file saves you time, paper and postage. You get your Schedule 1 almost immediately after we accept your return, and you can get your taxes done from your computer while you are on the road, any time of the day or night.

If you are reporting 25 or more trucks on a return, you must file and pay electronically.

How To File Form 2290

Electronic filing is required for each return reporting 25 or more vehicles. However, all taxpayers are encouraged to file electronically. Electronic filing generally allows for quicker processing of your return. A stamped Schedule 1 can be available in as little as 24 hours after filing.

File Form 2290 electronically through any electronic return originator (ERO), transmitter, and/or intermediate service provider (ISP) participating in the IRS e-file program for excise taxes.

You can e-file your form 2290 at www.eform2290.com which is an IRS authorized website.
