§ 68-710. Reports by dealers and users - Payment of tax

(a) Every special fuel dealer and special fuel user must on or

before the twentieth day of each calendar month, file with the Tax

Commission a verified report, on a form prescribed and furnished by

the Tax Commission showing the total number of gallons of special

fuel used within this state during the preceding calendar month.

(b) The monthly reports of every special fuel dealer must show

the following information on special fuels: The number of gallons

on hand at the beginning and end of each month; the number of

gallons received from any and all sources supported by detailed

schedules and receipts and purchases; the number of gallons sold and

delivered to any other licensed special fuel dealer on which the

special fuel tax is assumed by such other licensed dealer, giving

full details of each sale, including the date thereof, invoice

number and O.T.C. license number of the seller and purchaser; number

of gallons delivered into the fuel supply tanks of motor vehicles

and such other information as the Tax Commission may require.

(c) The monthly report of every special fuel user must show the

following information on special fuels: The total miles traveled;

miles traveled in Oklahoma by each motor vehicle using special fuel;

the total gallonage of special fuel consumed; the number of gallons

of special fuel purchased or received in this state; the date of

each purchase or receipt; the name and address of the seller; the

delivery invoice number of each purchase or receipt; and the number

of gallons of special fuel imported into and used in this state. The

report must also include the amount of special fuel on hand at the

beginning and close of the month as shown by the physical inventory,

if storage is maintained in Oklahoma, and a complete record of all

receipts into and withdrawals from said storage. The number of

gallons of special fuel shown to have been purchased tax paid from a

licensed special fuel dealer in Oklahoma shall be deducted from the

total number of gallons of special fuel used in Oklahoma by such

special fuel user to determine the number of gallons of special fuel

upon which the tax levied by this act is to be computed and paid.

The requirement of this section shall not apply to receipts and

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 68. Revenue and Taxation

inventory control date covering separate bulk storage from which

only wholesale distribution of special fuel is made.

(d) Each special fuel dealer and special fuel user at the time

of filing each monthly report must pay to the Tax Commission the

full amount of tax due for the preceding calendar month at the rate

provided for in this act. Such tax is due and payable on the first

day of each month and if not paid is delinquent from and after the

twentieth day of such month. Motor fuel taxes collected by a

distributor on behalf of a licensed retailer of the distributor or

collected on behalf of a nonlicensed purchaser of motor fuel that

are subsequently determined to be uncollectible by the distributor

may be credited against subsequent motor fuel tax liability imposed

by law upon such distributor. For purposes of this subsection,

motor fuel taxes collected on behalf of a licensed retailer of the

distributor or collected on behalf of a nonlicensed purchaser shall

be deemed uncollectible if such taxes are deducted for purposes of

calculating the federal income tax liability of the distributor. The

method for crediting uncollectible motor fuel taxes as provided by

this subsection shall be prescribed in rules and regulations of the

Oklahoma Tax Commission.

(e) The license of any person using special fuel who is

delinquent in the payment of the tax levied by this act may be

canceled by the Tax Commission in the manner provided by law.

Amended by Laws 1988, c. 14, § 10, operative July 1, 1988.
