IC 6-2.5-3.5-22: Purchases or shipments of gasoline to or from locations outside Indiana

Sec. 22. (a) If a purchase or shipment of gasoline is made to a distributor (other than a qualified distributor) outside Indiana for shipment into and subsequent sale or use by the distributor within Indiana, the distributor shall make the payment required by section 19 of this chapter directly to the department. The distributor shall pay the tax and submit the electronic report according to the schedule set forth in section 20 of this chapter.

(b) If a purchase or shipment is made within Indiana for shipment and subsequent sale outside Indiana, the purchase or shipment is exempt from the gasoline use tax payment requirements of section 19 of this chapter. In such a case, if the gasoline use tax has already been paid on the purchase or shipment, the distributor (including a qualified distributor) may claim a credit for that gasoline use tax against the amount required to be remitted if the distributor provides evidence that the shipment and subsequent sale were outside Indiana.

(c) A distributor importing gasoline into Indiana must obtain a permit from the department under section 17 of this chapter.
