AN ACT
|
|
|
relating to the sales and use tax exemption for certain aircraft. |
|
|
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: |
|
|
SECTION 1. Section 151.328(h), Tax Code, is amended to read |
|
|
as follows: |
|
|
(h) For purposes of the exemption under Subsection (a)(5), |
|
|
an aircraft is considered to be for use exclusively in connection |
|
|
with an agricultural use if 95 percent of the use of the aircraft is |
|
|
for a purpose described by Subsections (a)(5)(A)-(F). Travel [of
|
|
|
less than 30 miles each way] to a location to perform a service |
|
|
described by Subsections (a)(5)(A)-(F) does not disqualify an |
|
|
aircraft from the exemption under Subsection (a)(5). A person who |
|
|
claims an exemption under Subsection (a)(5) must maintain and make |
|
|
available to the comptroller flight records for all uses of the |
|
|
aircraft. |
|
|
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act does not |
|
|
affect tax liability accruing before the effective date of this |
|
|
Act. That liability continues in effect as if this Act had not been |
|
|
enacted, and the former law is continued in effect for the |
|
|
collection of taxes due and for civil and criminal enforcement of |
|
|
the liability for those taxes. |
|
|
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019. |
