Arkansas Code § 26-53-131 - Credit for Tax Paid in Another State

(a) (1) (A) (i) The provisions of this subchapter shall not apply to any tangible personal property or taxable services used, consumed, distributed, or stored in this state upon which a like tax equal to or greater than the tax imposed by this subchapter has been paid in another state.

(ii) Proof of payment of the tax shall be made according to the rules and regulations promulgated by the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration.

(B) If the amount of tax paid in another state is less than the amount of Arkansas compensating tax imposed on the property or services by this subchapter, then the taxpayer shall pay to the director an amount of Arkansas compensating tax sufficient to make the combined amount of tax paid in the other state and this state equal to the total amount of Arkansas compensating tax that would be due if no tax on the property or services had been paid to any other state.

(2) No credit shall be given under this section for taxes paid on the property or services in another state if that state does not grant credit for taxes paid on similar tangible personal property or services in this state.

(b) The provisions of this section shall be cumulative to the provisions of this subchapter and shall not be construed as repealing or modifying any of the provisions of this subchapter.

(c) A credit is not allowed for sales or use taxes paid to another state with respect to the purchase of a motor vehicle, trailer, or semitrailer that was first registered by the purchaser in Arkansas.
