DAR File No.: 40981
Filed: 11/10/2016 10:13:07 AMNOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Section 59-12-103 imposes a tax on sales and uses of tangible personal property and services but leaves unclear how the two taxes work together. Section 59-12-107 places responsibility for collecting use tax upon vendors but does not provide adequate detail to determine if a taxable use has occurred and is silent on the issue of whether the vendor should collect use tax on goods purchased in interstate commerce but stored, used, or consumed within the state. Section 59-12-107 also imposes a use tax upon users if a sales or use tax was not collected by the vendor, but does not provide detail on how the user should pay or account for those payments. Section 59-12-118 gives the Tax Commission rule making authority to administer the sales and use tax.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No comments have been received.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Section R865-21U-1 clarifies the purpose of the use tax and when the use tax applies. Section R865-21U-2 clarifies that all rules promulgated for sales taxes are applicable to use taxes. Section R865- 21U-6 sets forth a purchaser�s responsibilities with regard to payment of and accounting for use tax. Section R865-21U-16 clarifies that use tax is required on goods sold in interstate commerce but stored, used, or consumed within the state. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
