Legislative Description

Sales tax on recreational vehicles. Removes the expiration of the provision in current law that provides that the sales tax rate on certain cargo trailers or recreational vehicles is the rate of the other state or other country in which the cargo trailer or recreational vehicle will be titled or registered under certain circumstances. (This provision was set to expire on June 30, 2019.) Amends the provision to apply only to sales that are made before July 1, 2019, or after June 30, 2024, to a resident of a nonreciprocal state or a foreign country. Provides a five year exemption from the state gross retail tax for cargo trailers and recreational vehicles sold to residents of nonreciprocal states and foreign countries beginning July 1, 2019, and ending June 30, 2024. Requires the legislative services agency (LSA) to evaluate the economic and fiscal impact of the exemption. Authorizes the LSA to request information from certain officials, governmental entities, and organizations. Requires the officials, governmental entities, and organizations to cooperate with the LSA in providing the requested information. Repeals the provision that authorizes the department of state revenue to enter into reciprocal agreements with other states concerning a sales tax exemption for cargo trailers and recreational vehicles that will be purchased in a state by a nonresident and then titled in another state.
