 (a) The Lieutenant Governor shall charge and collect, for the use of the Government of the United States Virgin Islands, the following fees upon the receipt for filing of any certificate or other paper relating to corporations— (1) For filing original articles of incorporation, the fee shall be computed on the basis of one-third of a cent for each share of authorized capital stock having par value up to and including 20,000 shares, one-fourth of a cent for each share in excess of 20,000 shares up to and including 200,000 shares, and one-fifth of a cent for each share in excess of 200,000 shares; one-third of a cent for each share of authorized capital stock without par value up to and including 20,000 shares, one-fourth of a cent for each share in excess of 20,000 shares up to and including 2,000,000 shares, and one-fifth of a cent for each share in excess of 2,000,000 shares. For the purpose of computing the fee on par value stock each $100 unit of the authorized capital stock shall be counted as one assessable share. Except in the case of a corporation which declares at the time of filing its original articles of incorporation, its intention to elect to become a Virgin Islands foreign sales corporation as defined in subpart C of part III of subchapter N of chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (Title 26, United States Code) or to be considered an exempt company as defined in chapter 14 of this title, the fee shall be not less than $75. In the case of a corporation which does so declare, the fee shall be not less than $400. In the case of a corporation which, at the time it filed its original articles of incorporation did not declare its intention to elect to become a Virgin Islands foreign sales corporation (including any corporation which filed its original articles of incorporation on or before the effective date of the section of this act which added this sentence), but which subsequently does so elect, within ten (10) days of such corporation's first such election, said corporation shall pay to the Lieutenant Governor an additional fee of $500. A corporation which includes in its original articles of incorporation, or in any amendments to such articles a specific statement that it may undertake the business of a “Virgin Islands foreign sales corporation” or that it may elect to become a “Virgin Islands foreign sales corporation” shall be deemed to have declared its intent to elect to become a Virgin Islands foreign sales corporation. (2) For filing a certificate of amendment of articles of incorporation, or amended articles of incorporation before payment of capital, increasing the authorized capital stock of a corporation, the fee shall be an amount equal to the difference between the fee computed at the foregoing rates upon the total authorized capital stock of the corporation including the proposed increase, and the fee computed at the foregoing rates upon the total authorized capital stock excluding the proposed increase. In no case shall the amount paid be less than $150. (3) For filing a certificate of consolidation or merger of two or more corporations, the fee shall be an amount equal to the difference between the fee computed at the foregoing rates upon the total authorized capital stock of the corporation created by the consolidation or merger, and the fee so computed upon the aggregate amount of the total authorized capital stock of the constituent corporations. In no case shall the amount paid be less than $150. (4) For filing amended articles of incorporation before payment of capital and not involving an increase of authorized capital stock, or an amendment to the articles of incorporation not involving an increase of authorized capital stock, or a certificate of reduction of capital, or a certificate of retirement of preferred stock, the fee to be paid shall be $25.
