Mississippi Fuel Taxes

Natural Gas Tax

A fuel tax is levied on distributors of compressed natural gas and liquefied natural gas based per 100 cubic feet rather than on a gallon equivalent basis. An annual privilege tax is imposed on operators of motor vehicles using and/or capable of using compressed gas and is imposed according to the gross vehicle weight rating. (Reference Mississippi Code 27-59-11)
