Alternative Fuel Tax Exemption

Taxes imposed on alternative fuels used in official vehicles for the U.S. or any Delaware state governmental agency, including volunteer fire and rescue companies, are waived. Additionally, alternative fuel retailers must obtain a fuel supplier's license from the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), and operators or owners of vehicles using alternative fuel must obtain either a special fuel user's license from DelDOT or pay the special fuel tax. (Reference Delaware Code Title 30, Chapter 51, Subchapter II)
