701—204.5(423) Purchaser refund procedures. Iowa law allows a purchaser to seek a return of overcollected sales or use taxes from the seller who collected them. See 2005 Iowa Code subsection 423.45(2). In connection with any purchaser’s request of a seller that the seller return sales or use tax alleged to have been overcollected, the seller to whom the request is directed shall be rebuttably presumed to have a reasonable business practice if, in the collection of such sales or use tax, the seller uses either a provider or a system, including a proprietary system, which is certified by this state; and has remitted all taxes collected by the use of that provider system to the department, less any deductions, credits, or collection allowances.
This rule is intended to implement 2005 Iowa Code chapter 423, subchapter IV.
