(a) Licensees whose operations, other than in the base jurisdiction, total five thousand (5,000) miles in all international fuel tax agreement member jurisdictions may request to report on an annual basis. This will be based upon filing history. Should any licensee wish to report annually, the licensee must petition the base jurisdiction to do so. If the base jurisdiction agrees to permit annual reporting and no other jurisdiction objects, and the commissioner of revenue of this state does not object, annual reporting shall be allowed.

(b) Each permittee or licensee shall file a quarterly report, or annual report, if applicable, on forms prescribed by the department, showing the total number of qualified motor vehicle miles of operation in this state and any other information as may be required by the commissioner. The report shall reflect activity during the preceding calendar quarter or annual reporting period, as the case may be, and shall be due on the last day of the month following the close of the calendar quarter or annual reporting period for which the report is submitted.

(c) The full amount of the gasoline tax, motor fuel tax, or alternative fuel tax, imposed by this state shall be paid at the same time as the report is transmitted on or before each quarterly or annual due date set forth in subsection (b). The commissioner has the authority to require a permittee or licensee to make such payments in cash or by money order, certified check, or cashier's check.

(d) Failure by a permittee or licensee to file a proper quarterly or annual report, as the case may be, or to pay the proper tax may be considered by the commissioner as a basis to require such permittee or licensee to secure a bond pursuant to § 67-3-1203, or if such bond has already been secured, such failure shall cause any such bond to be forfeited.
