APPLICATION FOR AVIATION GASOLINE TAX REFUND
Under New Mexico Law, purchasers of gasoline for use as aviation fuel may claim a refund of the gasoline tax paid on the fuel under
certain circumstances. No claim for refund may be presented on less than one hundred gallons, but purchasers of aviation gasoline
may accumulate receipts/invoices to reach the minimum required for filing a refund claim. A claim for refund must be filed within six
(6) months of the date the gasoline was purchased and used. A refund of gasoline tax claimed must be reduced by the compensat-
ing tax due on the fuel purchase price.
Instructions for completing the Application for Aviation Gasoline Tax Refund.
Complete the upper portion of the refund application.
1)
Enter the total amount paid for gasoline. This amount is calculated by adding the dollar amount of all the original invoices which
must accompany this request. This amount will include the state excise tax of $.17 per gallon.
2)
Enter the state excise tax paid. This amount is a sum of the total gallons purchased multiplied by $.17.
3)
Calculate base price of fuel by deducting the amount on line 2 from line 1. This amount is then entered on line 3.
4)
Multiply the amount on line 3 by 5%. This is the amount of compensating tax owed.
5)
Calculate your refund due by deducting the amount of compensating tax on line 4 from the amount of state excise tax paid on
line 2.
Sign and date the application form. Place the original of each receipt / invoice for which the refund claim is based along with this
application in an envelope and mail to the address above. Keep a copy of the application and legible copies of the invoices for your
