Section 710:65-13-343 - Exemption for qualified youth athletic teams

(a) General provisions. Sales tax does not apply to the first $15,000.00 of each year's sales to or by youth athletic teams, made for the purpose of raising funds for the benefit of the team. In order to qualify for exemption the youth athletic team must be a part of an athletic organization exempt from federal income taxation pursuant to 26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(4).

(b) Application process. Application is made by submitting to the Business Tax Services Division, Oklahoma Tax Commission, Oklahoma City, OK 73194, a completed Form 13-16-A, contained in Packet E, available online at www.tax.ok.gov, along with the following information:

(c) Exemption limited to eligible, properly-documented transactions. Only the first $15,000 of either sales or purchases of the organization are exempt. The organization must keep accurate records to enable it to properly document the exemption on its purchases and to know when it is required to charge sales tax on its sales. If sales tax is collected by the organization on sales which could have been exempt under the provisions of this Section, the sales tax must be remitted to the Oklahoma Tax Commission. Only those purchases actually purchased by the organization, invoiced to the organization, and paid for by funds or check directly from the organization, will qualify for the exemption described in this Section.

(d) Purchases by contractors. Purchases of taxable personal property or services by a contractor, as defined by 68 O.S. § 1352, are taxable to the contractor. A contractor may not purchase tangible personal property or services to perform contracts with qualifying organizations exempt from sales tax.
