La. Admin. Code tit. 72 § I-507

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 11, November 20, 2024

Section I-507 - Transaction in which Title and Possessions Are Transferred

A. Transactions in which title and possession of tangible personal property are transferred within a local taxing jurisdiction are clearly sales at retail and these transactions are not eligible for the temporary storage exclusion. Sales tax is due regardless of whether a Temporary Storage Tax Exemption Certificate has been issued or the property is labeled (earmarked) for use in another jurisdiction. The key factor in the transaction is the delivery in purchaser's taxing jurisdiction via the seller's vehicle or by the seller's agent. In such event, the seller is physically giving possession to the purchaser in the purchaser's taxing jurisdiction and a sales tax would be due. Likewise, when the purchaser picks up the property in its own vehicle at the seller's place of business, title and possession have been transferred, and a sales tax would be due in the seller's taxing jurisdiction.
