North Dakota Motor Fuels Tax E-file

If you hold a North Dakota motor fuels tax license, you must submit the required tax reports electronically. The files must be created using one of the following options:

• An Excel spreadsheet template provided by the Tax Commissioner, or
• Electronic data interchange (EDI) software provided by various third party vendors.

The files must be submitted using the secure web application Motor Fuels Access E-file (E-file). Once you have registered for E-file, you will be able to submit your reports online, up until midnight of the due date to meet the filing deadline.

E-file uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology to ensure your information is secure and protected. E-file is a free online option where you can submit your motor fuels tax report files from the convenience of your personal computer, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A successful upload of the electronic file will be followed with a confirmation message indicating that a file was received. E-file can only be accessed with a valid North Dakota motor fuels tax license and a North Dakota Login ID (See "Access E-file" below to obtain a North Dakota Login ID and for more information).
