What State Auditors Look For in IFTA & IRP Reviews

Base jurisdictions audit approximately 3% of registered IFTA and IRP fleets each year. Incomplete odometer continuity or missing retail fuel invoices can trigger costly fleet-wide MPG assessments.

Core Documentation Requirements

  • ELD / GPS Ping Logs: Must capture latitude/longitude, timestamp, and odometer readings at regular intervals.
  • Unaltered Fuel Receipts: Must display date, seller name and address, gallons purchased, fuel type, and unit number.
