Can I make tax-free sales of undyed diesel fuel to state and local government?
Yes. You must pay the tax at the time of purchase and file a claim for refund. However, if the governmental unit pays with a third party credit card, the deduction may not be taken. The issuer of the third party credit card must bill the governmental entity without the tax and file a refund claim. Sales invoice documentation of the tax-free sales must be maintained. The tax-free sales to state and local governmental units are not subject to the 100-gallon limitation. The deduction is found in Section 34 of the Act.
