§ 6039. Tax; post-event report by promoter

• (a) Every promoter shall, not later than seven days after the conclusion of a mixed martial
  arts event, submit a post-event report to the Office in accordance with rules adopted
  pursuant to this subchapter. The report shall include the exact number of tickets
  to the event sold, the amount of gross and net receipts from the event, and any other
  facts as the Director may by rule require. The promoter shall report on tickets sold
  to an entire event not to an individual match within an event. (b) Every promoter shall, not later than seven days after the conclusion of a mixed martial
  arts event, pay to the Office by certified check a tax of five percent of the receipts
  from tickets, admission fees, and sponsorships after all costs from the event and
  any other State and federal taxes thereon have been paid. The promoter shall pay the
  tax on the receipts from the entire event. This tax shall be deposited in the Professional
  Regulation Fee Fund and used to carry out the provisions of this subchapter. (c) If the report required under this section and the accompanying tax are not paid within
  the seven days required, the Office may examine, or cause to be examined, the books
  and records of the promoter and any corporation on behalf of which the promoter held
  the event. (Added 2021, No. 69, § 15.)
