Failure to comply with all statutory reporting and payment requirements will subject the<br />
dealer or broker to an assessment for the unreported or unpaid sales or use tax.<br />
43. Can you provide more examples of situations where there is no tax due on the<br />
transfer of title of a motor vehicle, all-purpose vehicle, off-highway motorcycle,<br />
titled watercraft, titled outboard motor, or titled personal watercraft?<br />
Here are some examples:<br />
(A) Sales to an organization that has been granted and maintains 501(c)(3) status by the<br />
Internal Revenue Service or is a not-for-profit organization operated exclusively for<br />
charitable purposes in this state. (NP)<br />
Note: A motor vehicle sold to any organization for use in the operation or carrying on of<br />
a trade or business would be taxable.<br />
(B) Sale in interstate commerce with delivery being made by the seller to a point outside<br />
this state for use outside this state or delivered to an interstate carrier for delivery outside<br />
of <strong>Ohio</strong>. (IS)<br />
(C) Sale to a purchaser who is to use the motor vehicle as follows:<br />
a. As transportation equipment, except those licensed to operate on the public highways,<br />
to transport items in the process of production for sale by manufacturing, processing,<br />
assembling or refining within a plant. (PT) (See Rule 5703-9-21, <strong>Ohio</strong> Adm. Code)<br />
b. Directly in production of tangible personal property for sale by mining. Used prior to<br />
the tipple or crusher, or in the construction, operation and maintenance of private power<br />

d. Sale to a nonresident of this state upon presentation of an affidavit executed in this<br />
state by the nonresident purchaser affirming that:<br />
1) the purchaser is not a resident of this state,<br />
2) that possession of the vehicle is taken in this state for the sole purpose of immediately<br />
removing it from the state,<br />
3) the resident state provides a nonresident motor vehicle exemption from their sales and<br />
use tax law under which <strong>Ohio</strong> residents can purchase a vehicle and not be required to pay<br />
sales or use tax, and<br />
4) that the vehicle will be permanently titled and registered in another state and that it<br />
will not be used in the State of <strong>Ohio</strong>. (NR)<br />
Note: The sale of a motor vehicle consummated in <strong>Ohio</strong> to a nonresident member of the<br />
Armed Forces stationed in <strong>Ohio</strong> is subject to <strong>Ohio</strong> sales or use tax. This type of<br />
transaction does not qualify under the nonresident exemption because the vehicle will be<br />
used in <strong>Ohio</strong>.<br />
Another exception to the nonresident exemption would be the sale of a motor vehicle<br />
consummated in <strong>Ohio</strong> to a nonresident student attending school in <strong>Ohio</strong>. In this case, the
