Rule 701-270.7 - Sales not subject to local option tax, including transactions subject to Iowa use taxThe local option sales and services tax is imposed upon the same basis as the Iowa state sales and services tax, with the following exceptions:
1. Local option tax is not imposed on the sales price from the sale of tangible personal property and services that are excluded from local option tax as described in Iowa Code section 423B.5(1).2. A local taxing jurisdiction is prohibited from taxing the sales price from a pay television service consisting of a direct-to-home satellite service to the extent precluded by Section 602 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. A "local taxing jurisdiction" is any municipality, city, county, township, parish, transportation district, or assessment jurisdiction, or any other local jurisdiction in the territorial jurisdiction of the United States, with the authority to impose a tax or fee, but does not include a state.3. Sales subject to Iowa use tax. Since the local option tax is imposed only on the same basis and not on any greater basis than the Iowa sales and services tax, local option tax is not imposed on any transactions subject to Iowa use tax, including the one-time registration fee applicable to vehicles subject to registration or subject only to the issuance of a certificate of title. Also, exemptions that are applicable only to Iowa use tax cannot be claimed to exempt any transaction subject to local option sales tax. This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 423B.5.
