(2) If the taxpayer, any person liable for the payment of ad valorem taxes on personal property or the secured lender, if any, fails or refuses to pay the taxes after receiving the notice and demand as provided in subsection (1) of this section, the tax collector may file a notice of a tax lien for such ad valorem taxes with the circuit clerk of the county in which the taxpayer resides or owns property which shall be enrolled as a judgment on the judgment roll.

The purchase of the license tag exceeding 80,000 gross vehicle weight is limited to the transport of products as provided for harvest permits as defined in Section 27-19-81(4) . Such license tag shall be a “HP” license tag with weight allowance printed on the cab card only.

In addition to the above levied annual highway privilege tax on vehicles with a gross weight exceeding ten thousand (10,000) pounds, there is levied and shall be collected an additional privilege tax in the amount of One Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy-five Dollars ($1,875.00) for each current or later year model vehicle based upon a licensed weight of eighty-eight thousand (88,000) pounds. This additional privilege tax shall be reduced by the amount of One Hundred Seventy-five Dollars ($175.00) for each year of age to a minimum of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) and further reduced by the ratio of licensed weight to the maximum weight of eighty-eight thousand (88,000) pounds. During the first year only, the privilege tax monies collected under the provisions of this paragraph shall be distributed to the various counties of the state on the basis of the ratio of the last year of annual ad valorem taxes collected by such counties on such vehicles to the total ad valorem taxes collected by all counties on such vehicles in the same year. In all subsequent years, the distribution to the counties shall be made on the basis of the ratio of the number of motor vehicles registered in excess of ten thousand (10,000) pounds, in each taxing district in each county, to the total number of such vehicles registered statewide. The counties shall then distribute these proceeds as they would if these collections were ad valorem taxes.

From the privilege tax monies collected under this section, Three Million Seven Hundred Thirty-two Thousand Four Hundred Three Dollars and Eleven Cents ($3,732,403.11) shall be earmarked and set aside to be apportioned and paid to the counties of the state in the manner provided by Section 27-19-159, Mississippi Code of 1972 . Any excess privilege tax monies collected under this section shall be deposited into the State Highway Fund for the construction, maintenance and reconstruction of highways and roads of the State of Mississippi or the payment of interest and principal on bonds authorized by the 1972 Regular Session of the Legislature for construction and reconstruction of highways.

No privilege license shall be issued for any period of time for less than One Dollar ($1.00). Any person making an application for the license tag under this section is required to sign an affidavit attesting to facts indicating the applicability of this section. Proof of purchase of a valid harvest permit for the vehicle must be presented at the time of purchase of the license tag.

The annual highway privilege tax imposed on operators engaged exclusively in the transportation of household goods shall be the same as the tax imposed upon private commercial carriers by this section. In determining the amount of privilege taxes due under the provisions of this section, there shall be allowed a maximum tolerance of five hundred (500) pounds on all classes of carriers except carriers of liquefied compressed gases and in the case of carriers of liquefied compressed gases there shall be allowed a maximum tolerance of two thousand (2,000) pounds.

Any owner or operator who operates a motor vehicle on the public highways, with a license tag attached to it which was issued for another or different vehicle, shall be liable for the privilege tax on said vehicle for twelve (12) months plus a penalty thereon of twenty-five percent (25%).

Carriers of property duly registered and licensed in another state and being used to transport farm harvesting machinery or equipment to and from a particular county in this state may, upon adoption of a resolution by the board of supervisors of the county where such machinery or equipment is being exclusively used in harvesting farm crops within the county, be exempt from the taxes herein levied when the resolution is filed with the Department of Revenue. However, the exemption shall not exceed a period of forty (40) days for any annual period without a second resolution of approval by the board of supervisors who shall have the authority to extend the exemption not to exceed an additional period of twenty (20) days during any annual period.

A private commercial carrier of property hauling interstate may purchase a common and contract carrier of property license plate at the prescribed fee to allow the carrier to lease on a one-way basis per trip without qualifying with the Public Service Commission.

(2) Beginning January 1, 2024, an owner of a carrier of property whose gross vehicle weight does not exceed ten thousand (10,000) pounds may choose a license tag with a black background and a white pinstripe border. “Mississippi” shall be printed at the top, and the name of the county shall be printed at the bottom. The application and the additional fee of Thirty-eight Dollars and Twenty-five Cents ($38.25), less Two Dollars ($2.00) to be remitted to the Department of Revenue License Tag Acquisition Fund created in Section 27-19-179 , shall be remitted to the department on a monthly basis as prescribed by the department. The remaining Thirty-six Dollars and Twenty-five Cents ($36.25) of the additional fee shall be deposited to the credit of the Law Enforcement Officers and Fire Fighters Death Benefits Trust Fund established in Section 45-2-1 . In all other respects, tags issued under this subsection (2) shall follow the guidelines for tags issued under subsection (1) of this section.

Provided, however, an annual license or privilege tax on the gross amount of premium receipts received from and on policies and contracts issued to fund a retirement, thrift or deferred compensation plan qualified under Section 401, Section 403, an individual retirement annuity qualified under Section 408 or Section 457 of the Federal Tax Code for federal tax exemption shall not be imposed on any foreign or domestic company, unless such foreign company has its principal place of business in a state which imposes a license or privilege tax on such policies issued by companies having their principal place of business in Mississippi, in which case said foreign company shall be taxed at the same rate its state of principal business imposes a license or privilege tax on Mississippi companies with respect to such policies. Provided further, in the event an insurance company has heretofore included in its premium charge the tax required hereby, said premium charges on all such annuity policies and contracts shall be reduced by the amount of said tax within one hundred twenty (120) days from March 30, 1974. This latter provision shall apply to all such annuity policies and contracts qualified under Section 401, Section 403, Section 408 or Section 457 of the Federal Tax Code for federal tax exemption presently in force as well as to those hereafter issued.

(2) In the event that the Mississippi Supreme Court or another court finally adjudicates that any tax levied prior to July 1, 1985, under the provisions of this section was collected unconstitutionally and that a liability for a credit or refund for such collection has accrued, then the rate of tax set forth above shall be increased to four percent (4%) for a period of six (6) years beginning July 1 following such adjudication.

The purchaser or transferee in business shall be required to withhold sufficient of the purchase money to cover the amount of any taxes, damages and interest due until such time as the former owner shall produce a receipt from the commissioner showing that such liability has been paid, or a certificate that no taxes are due. In the event the former owner shall fail to pay any taxes, damages and interest due the state within the time allowed, the successor in business shall pay such taxes, damages and interest to the commissioner upon demand. If the purchaser or transferee of a business or stock of goods shall fail to withhold purchase money as provided and the taxes, damages and interest shall be due and unpaid after the period of ten (10) days allowed, he shall be personally liable for the payment of taxes, damages and interest of the former owner, and the property sold or transferred may be proceeded against by the commissioner in the hands of the purchaser or transferee as though no sale or transfer had been made.

The liability under this subsection is derivative of the corporation or limited liability company, and the thirty-six-month assessment period in Section 27-65-42 will begin to run after the liability of the corporation or limited liability company becomes final. A person being assessed under this subsection may appeal his liability under Section 27-77-5 solely regarding the issue of the ownership interest and management requirements of this subsection. The commissioner shall make assessments against said persons of such taxes, damages and interest, and effect collection by the same procedures herein provided for assessment and collection of all taxes levied by this chapter.

(3) Any person, acting as agent for a dealer who has no permanent place of business in this state, who sells tangible personal property in this state, either at auction or as a transient vendor, shall be liable for collection of sales tax, where applicable, and payment of the same of this state unless the vendor principal is authorized to collect the tax and is registered under Section 27-65-27 . Such persons shall maintain for a period of three (3) years adequate records which shall be available for inspection by the commissioner or his agent and which shall reveal the true sales tax liability of all parties to each transaction. Failure to maintain and permit examination of such records shall render the agent liable for sales tax accruing from all sales as determined by the commissioner from any information available. The commissioner shall effect collection by the same procedures herein provided for assessment and collection of all taxes levied by this chapter.
