What is the purpose of the stamped Schedule 1 document?

The stamped Schedule 1 is the proof of payment for your heavy highway vehicle use tax (HVUT). HVUT must be filed and paid to the IRS annually by highway motor vehicle owners and operators. Both taxable vehicles and suspended vehicles, also commonly known as low mileage vehicles, must be reported on the Form 2290. Suspended vehicles have no tax due to the IRS. The Schedule 1 is evidence of the HVUT payment for any taxable highway motor vehicles reported on the Form 2290.

The watermarked Schedule 1 document will have the date that your Form 2290 was e-filed and approved with the IRS. This Schedule 1 document is what you will need to register or renew the taxable highway motor vehicle or suspended vehicle with the state. The Schedule 1 document will list each Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that was submitted on the Form 2290 and the associated taxable gross weight category of the heavy highway motor vehicle.

Before a heavy highway vehicle can be registered, states will require verification that the heavy vehicle taxes have been paid. Use a stamped or watermarked copy of Schedule 1 as proof of payment when registering vehicles with the state or entering a Canadian or Mexican vehicle into the United States.

The Schedule 1 can be used to register a truck with the state DMV, renew the vehicle's tags and operate the vehicle on a public highway.
