List of Quarterly and Annual Reports for Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) - Compliance Year 2021

Required Procedures for RFS Compliance Reporting

Submitters are required to use e-signature to sign the Copy of Record for EPA Moderated Transaction System (EMTS) transactions. This procedure eliminates the past practice of submitting separate RIN Generation and RIN Transaction reports.

For a Job Aid on this task, see: How to Use e-Signature to Sign RIN Transaction Reports in EMTS.

The linked reporting instructions or job aids provide detailed instructions on required data fields and formatting.

This table is only intended to provide a high-level overview of the most common reporting requirements in the RFS and does not contain every possible reporting requirement or scenario. Please consult the regulations for all reporting requirements.
