Section 154.152 - Interstate Stock(a) A distributor shall set aside unstamped cigarette packages for interstate sale and for which no tax is due under federal law in a separate part of the building from the stamped packages. If the unstamped packages for interstate sale or for which no tax is due under federal law are not stored separately, the cigarettes are subject to the same requirements as cigarettes possessed for the purpose of a first sale in this state.(b) A distributor who possesses unstamped cigarette packages for interstate sale must possess a number of unused stamps from the appropriate state sufficient to stamp the distributor's inventory of unstamped interstate cigarettes, except for cigarette packages for which no tax is due under federal law. Any unstamped packages of cigarettes that exceed the number of out-of-state stamps on hand shall be presumed to be held for sale in this state, except for cigarette packages for which no tax is due under federal law.(c) A person may not transport or cause to be transported from this state cigarettes for sale in another state without first affixing to the cigarettes the stamp required by the state in which the cigarettes are to be sold or paying any other excise tax on the cigarettes imposed by the state in which the cigarettes are to be sold. This subsection does not apply to the distribution, sale, or transportation of cigarettes sold by an interstate warehouse in an interstate warehouse transaction.(d) A person may not affix to cigarettes the stamp required by another state or pay any other excise tax on the cigarettes imposed by another state if the other state prohibits stamps from being affixed to the cigarettes, prohibits the payment of any other excise tax on the cigarettes, or prohibits the sale of the cigarettes.(e) Not later than the 15th day after the end of each calendar quarter, a person who transports or causes to be transported from this state cigarettes for sale in another state shall submit to the attorney general a report identifying: (1) the quantity of cigarettes, by brand style, transported or caused to be transported in the preceding calendar quarter; and(2) the name and address of each recipient of the cigarettes.Amended by: Acts 2021, 87th Leg., R.S., Ch. 994 (S.B. 248), Sec. 16, eff.
