PROHIBITIONS, AND RESTRICTIONS. (a) The comptroller shall impose
and collect a tax or other charge or a prohibition or restriction on
a foreign insurer authorized to engage in business in this state if:

imposes a tax or other charge or a prohibition or restriction on a
similar domestic insurer that is or may be authorized to engage in
business in that other state; and
(2) the sum of the taxes or other charges,
prohibitions, and restrictions imposed by that other state is more

restrictions that this state directly imposes on the foreign
insurer.
(b) The comptroller shall impose and collect the tax or
other charge, prohibition, or restriction under Subsection (a) in
the same manner and for the same purpose as the foreign insurer's
state of organization.
(c) The sum of the taxes or other charges that this state
imposes on a foreign insurer under this subchapter may not exceed
the sum of the taxes or other charges imposed by the foreign
insurer's state of organization on a similar domestic insurer that
is or may be authorized to engage in business in that other state.
