The Barge and Rail Usage Tax Credit is an income tax credit for the usage of barge and rail to move cargo containers throughout

the Commonwealth rather than using trucks or other motor vehicles on the Commonwealth’s highways. To qualify for this credit, an

international trade facility must have an ownership interest in the cargo and control the choice of transportation. The amount of

the credit is $25 per 20-foot equivalent unit (TEU) or 16 tons of noncontainerized cargo moved by barge or rail.

To receive this credit, an international trade facility is required to apply to the Department. No more than $1.5 million in tax credits can be

issued in any fiscal year. The Department will determine the allowable credit amount for the taxable year and provide a written certification

of the credit amount to each taxpayer. Taxpayers can claim this credit against the individual income tax, the corporate income tax, the tax

on estates and trusts, the bank franchise tax, the insurance premiums tax, and the tax on public service corporations.
