The courts of this State shall recognize and enforce liabilities for taxes lawfully imposed by any other state of the United States, or a political subdivision of any such state, which state extends a like comity to this State, and the duly authorized officer or agency of any such other state, or political subdivision thereof, may sue for the collection of such taxes in the courts of this State.
A certificate by the Secretary of State of such other state that the officer or agency suing for the collection of such a tax is duly authorized to collect the same shall be conclusive proof of such authority.
