Section 63-3612, Idaho Code

01. In General. Tax applies to charges for producing, fabricating, processing, printing, imprinting, or the engraving of tangible personal property for a consideration, whether consumers furnish either directly or indirectly the materials used in the producing, fabricating, processing, printing, imprinting, or engraving.

a. Example 1: An owner purchases cabinets from a cabinetmaker to be made according to specifications furnished by the owner. The cabinetmaker delivers the cabinets to the owner who installs them himself. A sales tax will be collected by the cabinetmaker from the owner measured by the entire sales price.

b. Example 2: An owner purchases material, on which he pays a sales tax, which he delivers to a cabinetmaker. The cabinetmaker uses this material to manufacture cabinets for the owner according to specification. These cabinets are delivered to the owner and an agreed price is paid for the work done by the cabinetmaker. A sales tax will be collected from the owner, measured by the entire price charged by the cabinetmaker.

c. Example 3: An individual takes a plaque, on which sales tax has been paid, to an engraver and requests the plaque be engraved with an inscription. The total price paid for the engraving is taxable.

d. Example 4: A club purchases trophies from a retailer and requests that the trophies be engraved with individual names. The trophies are engraved and delivered for an agreed price. The measure of the sales tax is the price of the trophies plus the engraving charge.

02. Repairing and Reconditioning Distinguished. Producing, fabricating, and processing includes any operation which results in the creation or production of tangible personal property or which is a step in a process or series of operations resulting in the creation or production of tangible personal property. The terms do not include operations which do not result in the creation or production of tangible personal property or which do not constitute a step in a process or series of operations resulting in the creation or production of tangible personal property, but which constitute merely the repair or reconditioning of tangible personal property to refit it for the use for which it was originally produced.

03. Cross-References.

a. Repairs and Renovation of Tangible Personal Property. See Rules 011 and 062 of these rules.

b. Fabrications by Contractors. See Rule 012 of these rules.
