There is exempt from the tax imposed by this chapter fuel and petroleum products sold to or used by an air common carrier, certified by the carrier to be used for consumption, shipment or storage in the conduct of its business as an air common carrier for a flight destined for or continuing from a location outside the United States.
If a dealer pays to the department the tax imposed by this chapter on fuel or petroleum products sold to an air common carrier, and if the fuel or petroleum products are subsequently used by the air common carrier in a manner that renders the product exempt from tax under subsection (a), then the dealer may take a credit equal to the amount of tax previously paid to the department, if all of the following conditions are satisfied:
Prior to taking the credit, the dealer must give the air common carrier a credit or refund of any tax collected from the air common carrier that is the basis for the credit taken under this subsection (b);
The dealer must obtain documentation from the air common carrier that is sufficient to establish that the fuel or petroleum products were used in an exempt manner as provided in subsection (a); and
The credit is taken by the dealer on a return filed pursuant to this chapter within one (1) year of the date the tax was paid to the department.
The dealer must maintain documentation that is sufficient to establish entitlement to the credit, and the documentation must be maintained for a period of three (3) years from December 31 of the year in which the credit is taken on the return. Nothing in this subsection (b) shall be construed as preventing the dealer from filing a claim for refund pursuant to § 67-1-1802 in lieu of taking a credit on the tax return; provided, however, that in no case shall the same tax be subject to a refund and a credit.
