1 STREAMLINED SALES AND USE TAX ACT, §423.54 423.54 Amnesty for registered sellers. 1. Subject to the limitations in subsections 2 through 6, the following provisions apply: a. Amnesty is provided for uncollected or unpaid sales or use tax to a seller who registers to pay or to collect and remit applicable sales or use tax on sales made to purchasers in this state in accordance with the terms of the agreement, provided the seller was not so registered in this state in the twelve-month period preceding the commencement of Iowa’s participation in the agreement. b. Amnesty precludes assessment of the seller for uncollected or unpaid sales or use tax together with penalty or interest for sales made during the period the seller was not registered in this state, provided registration occurs within twelve months of the commencement of Iowa’s participation in the agreement. c. Amnesty shall be provided to any seller lawfully registered under the agreement by any other member state prior to the date of the commencement of Iowa’s participation in the agreement. 2. Amnesty is not available to a seller with respect to any matter or matters for which the seller received notice of the commencement of an audit and which audit is not yet finally resolved, including any related administrative and judicial processes. 3. Amnesty is not available for sales or use taxes already paid or remitted or to taxes collected by the seller. 4. Amnesty is fully effective absent the seller’s fraud or intentional misrepresentation of a material fact as long as the seller continues registration and continues payment or collection and remittance of applicable sales or use taxes for a period of at least thirty-six months. The statute of limitations applicable to asserting a tax liability is tolled during this thirty-six month period. 5. Amnesty is applicable only to sales or use taxes due from a seller in its capacity as a seller and not to sales or use taxes due from a seller in its capacity as a buyer. 6. The director may allow amnesty on terms and conditions more favorable to a seller than the terms required by this section. 2003 Acts, 1st Ex, ch 2, §147, 205 Referred to in §423.48 Wed Feb 08 03:45:30 2017 Iowa Code 2017, Section 423.54 (12, 0)
