Skip the paper. File the Quarterly Federal Excise Tax Return online in minutes — every excise category, the 2026 rates built in, and your return transmitted directly to the IRS. Just $39.95 per filing, and free to start.
Paper Form 720 means hand-calculating rates, mailing a check with Form 720-V, and waiting weeks with no confirmation. Filing online removes the math, the mail, and the guesswork.
A guided flow walks you from business details to IRS submission — no wrestling with a 10-page PDF or IRS instructions.
Every excise rate is pre-loaded and the math is automatic, so you don't mis-key a rate or miscalculate a line.
Validations catch common mistakes before submission, and e-filed returns are accepted far faster than mailed paper.
You get an electronic acknowledgment that the IRS received your return — no wondering whether your envelope arrived.
256-bit SSL in transit and at rest. Your EIN and filing data are protected end to end.
Past returns are stored in your account, so next quarter (or next year's PCORI) is faster.
From signup to IRS confirmation, EasyFile720 guides you the whole way.
