Question: Does the Missouri Department of Revenue provide motor fuel tax EDI software?
Answer: No. However, the required software mapping is provided in the EDI Implementation Guide so the taxpayer has the option of building an EDI program in-house. The guide can be reviewed at: http://www.dor.mo.gov/business/fuel/. If the taxpayer chooses not to build the program, they can seek the assistance of a software vendor.
Question: Do I have to be enrolled in the motor fuel tax EFT program in order to participate in EDI?
Answer: Currently, the taxpayer is allowed to participate in the EDI program, without participating in the EFT program. With the ease of electronic filing and payment, it's recommended that the taxpayer consider taking advantage of both programs.
Question: How do I begin EDI testing with the department?
Answer: Once the taxpayer has EDI software in place, contact the motor fuel tax EDI Coordinator to set up a testing schedule. This process includes receiving a department issued ID and password to gain access to the department's secure internet file transfer site. For more information, call (573) 751-5795 or email us at excise@dor.mo.gov.
Question: Where do I retrieve an acknowledgement for an EDI file I sent to the department?
Answer: A file acknowledgement can be downloaded at the file transfer site by reviewing "Account Status" located in the site's menu.
Question: How do I find out more about EDI?
Answer: The taxpayer can access this PDF at https://dor.mo.gov/pdf/edishow.pdf for more information about the motor fuel tax EDI program. To address more specific questions, call the EDI Coordinator at (573) 751-5795 or email us at excise@dor.mo.gov.
