| The State Tax Assessor, by rule, may establish procedures |
whereby a purchaser of direct mail that is not a holder of a |
direct payment permit shall provide to the seller in conjunction |
with the purchase either a direct mail form prescribed by the |
assessor or information to show the jurisdictions to which the |
direct mail is delivered to recipients. Upon receipt of a direct |
mail form, the seller is relieved of its obligation to collect, |
pay or remit the applicable tax, and the purchaser is obligated |
to pay the applicable tax directly to the assessor. The direct |
mail form remains in effect for all future sales of direct mail |
by that seller to that purchaser until it is revoked in writing. |
Upon receipt of information from the purchaser showing the |
jurisdictions to which the direct mail is delivered to |
recipients, the seller shall collect the tax according to the |
delivery information provided by the purchaser. In the absence of |
bad faith, the seller is relieved of any further obligation for |
tax on any transaction for which the seller has collected tax in |
accordance with the delivery information provided by the |
purchaser. If the purchaser of direct mail is not a holder of a |
direct payment permit under section 1966 and does not provide the |
seller with either a direct mail form or delivery information, |
the seller shall collect the tax in accordance with section 1817, |
subsection 2, paragraph E.__Rules adopted pursuant to this |
section are routine technical rules as defined in Title 5, |
chapter 375, subchapter 2-A. |
