    PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement the following law changes:

    Section 212.04(2)(a)5., F.S., provides for an exemption from tax for admissions to certain professional or collegiate sporting events. Section 19 of Chapter 2022-97, L.O.F., revises s. 212.04(2)(a)5., F.S., to include additional events. The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement this law change by amending Rule 12A-1.005, F.A.C.

    Section 212.08(7)(b), F.S., provides for an exemption from tax for certain combustible fuels used in an industrial manufacturing, processing, compounding, or production process at a fixed location in this state. Section 23 of Chapter 2022-97, L.O.F., revises s. 212.08(7)(b), F.S., to include hydrogen as one of the specified exempt combustible fuels. The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement this law change by amending Rule 12A-1.059, F.A.C.

    Section 212.08(3)(b), F.S., provides for an exemption from tax for that portion of the sales price below $20,000 for a trailer weighing 12,000 pounds or less purchased by a farmer for agriculture production and transportation. Section 212.08(5)(b), F.S., provides for an exemption from tax for purchases of materials used to construct or repair fencing used in agricultural production. Section 23 of Chapter 2022-97, L.O.F., revises s. 212.08(3)(b), F.S., by allowing the exemption from tax for any trailer purchased by a farmer for agriculture production and transportation and revises the exemption for purchases of certain fencing materials provided by s. 212.08(5)(b), F.S., by including additional materials that qualify for the exemption. The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement this law change by amending Rule 12A-1.087, F.A.C.

    Section 213.755(1), F.S., authorizes the Executive Director of the Department of Revenue to require a taxpayer to file returns and remit payments by electronic means when the amount of tax paid by the taxpayer in the previous state fiscal year was more than $20,000. Effective January 1, 2023, Chapter 2022-151, L.O.F., reduces the electronic filing threshold for a taxpayer to file returns and remit payments from $20,000 to $5,000. The purpose of this rulemaking is to implement this law change and provide clarifying updates by amending Rule 12A-1.097, F.A.C.

    SUMMARY: • The proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.005(2)(d), F.A.C., include additional exemptions from tax for admission to certain FIFA World Cup matches, Formula One Grand Prix races, and the Daytona 500, including certain qualifying or support races.

    The proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.059(2)(a), F.A.C., incorporate the exemption from tax for hydrogen used in the manufacturing, processing, compounding, or production of tangible personal property for sale, as well as update the exemption certificate used to document the exempt purchase.

    The proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.087(4), F.A.C., incorporate changes to the exemption from tax for the purchase of a trailer by a farmer for agriculture production and transportation. The proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.087(10), F.A.C., incorporate the changes to the exemption from tax for the purchase of a trailer by a farmer for agriculture production and transportation and the exemption from tax for purchases of materials used to construct or repair fencing used in agricultural production in the exemption certificate used to document exempt purchases.

    Beginning January 1, 2023, the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.097, F.A.C., incorporate the reduced electronic filing threshold of $5,000 requiring the electronic filing of tax returns and electronic payment of tax. Form DR-15N (Instructions for DR-15 Sales and Use Tax Returns) and Form DR-15EZN (Instructions for DR-15EZ Sales and Use Tax Returns) are revised to notify taxpayers of the lowered threshold amount requiring taxpayers to file Forms DR-15 (Sales and Use Tax Return) and DR-15EZ (Sales and Use Tax Return) and pay the tax by electronic means. Form DR-1N (Registering Your Business) is revised to clarify sales and use tax registration instructions for motor vehicle rental companies, car sharing services, and peer-to-peer car sharing programs by adding a bullet for motor vehicle rental companies under the column for businesses required to submit Form DR-1 (Florida Business Tax Application) for each business location, and a bullet for car-sharing services and peer-to-peer car sharing programs under the column for businesses required to submit Form DR-1 for each county.

    SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:

    The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

    The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: 1) no requirement for the Statement of Economic Regulatory Costs (SERC) was triggered under Section 120.541(1), F.S.; and 2) based on past experiences regarding rules of this nature, the adverse impact or regulatory cost, if any, do not exceed nor would exceed any one of the economic analysis criteria in a SERC, as set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S.

    Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
