Missouri Senate Bill 30

Effective Aug. 28, 2007 energy sources, including electricity, natural gas, and water used in manufacturing, mining, compounding, processing or producing a product may be eligible for a new state sales tax exemption.

The newly enacted Missouri legislation - often referred to as Missouri Senate Bill 30 - provides various incentives and exemptions for businesses in Missouri, encouraging economic growth throughout the state. The refund or exemption runs for 3 years.

The Department of Revenue will provide qualification information and an exemption form on its Web site as soon as it is available. For more information, customers can visit www.dor.mo.gov or call 573-751-2836. Alternatively customers can write the State of Missouri Taxation Bureau, P. O. Box 3300, Jefferson City, MO 65105-3300 or email salesuse@dor.mo.gov.

The new law applies solely to Missouri state sales tax on utilities. All other applicable taxes on utilities (i.e.- federal, local) remain in effect.
