Calculate Your Form 2290 Tax

Find out exactly how much you owe the IRS before you file. Our interactive HVUT calculator automatically computes your heavy vehicle use tax based on your truck's weight and your first month of use.

The IRS sorts taxable trucks into weight categories A to V by taxable gross weight. Category A is exactly 55,000 lbs, each step up adds 1,000 lbs, and Category V covers anything over 75,000 lbs. The category sets the annual tax, from $100 (A) to $550 (V). Logging vehicles pay 75% of those amounts.

HVUT applies to vehicles 55,000 lbs and over, Categories A to V.

The tax period runs July through June. Later first use means a lower prorated tax.
