48-13-53.2.
(a)
Each innkeeper, on or before the twentieth day of each month, shall transmit
returns and remit taxes due to any applicable governing authority imposing a tax
under this article showing the gross charges taxable under this article during
the preceding calendar month. The governing authority imposing the tax may
provide by resolution or ordinance for quarterly or annual returns. The returns
required by this subsection shall be made upon forms prescribed, prepared, and
furnished by the governing authority imposing the tax.
(b)
As used in this subsection, the term 'estimated tax liability' means an
innkeeper´s tax liability under this article, adjusted to account for any
subsequent change in the rate of tax imposed under this article or any
substantial change in circumstances due to damage to the premises, based on his
or her average monthly payments for the last fiscal year. If the estimated tax
liability of an innkeeper for any taxable period exceeds $2,500.00, the
innkeeper shall file a return and remit to the governing authority imposing the
tax not less than 50 percent of the estimated tax liability for the taxable
period on or before the twentieth day of the period. The amount of the payment
of the estimated tax liability shall be credited against the amount to be due on
the return required under subsection (a) of this Code section. This subsection
shall not apply to any innkeeper unless during the previous fiscal year the
innkeeper´s monthly payments exceeded $2,500.00 per month for three
consecutive months or more.
