Instructions for Completing Form ST-108A
Sections A, B, and C must be completed when sales tax is collected.
Sections A, B, C, and D must be completed when an exemption is claimed.
The ST-108A allows an auction (not acting in the capacity of a licensed dealer with the Secretary of State) to indicate the amount of sales
tax collected from a purchaser of a motor vehicle, trailer, or watercraft. The auction must report and remit the sales tax collected to the
Department of Revenue. An auction selling its own inventory as a licensed dealer with the Secretary of State must use the ST-108 or
ST-108E form.
The auction must sign the ST-108A certifying it has collected the sales tax, unless an exemption is claimed. Failure to sign the ST-108A
will result in the rejection of the form by the license branch, and the purchaser will have to return to the auction to obtain the signature.
If an exemption from the tax is claimed, the purchaser must indicate a reason for the exemption and submit it to the license branch at the
time of titling. Form ST-108A serves as an affi davit of exemption by the purchaser and lists the exemptions available. The purchaser must
disclose his SSN (Social Security number), TID (taxpayer identifi cation number), or FID (federal identifi cation number) to claim an exemption.
Section A - Auction Information
Name of Auction: Show the name of the auction as it appears on the Registered Retail Merchant Certifi cate (RRMC). Do not use your
DBA (Doing Business As) as your name.
RRMC number (same as TID number - 10 Digits + LOC number - 3 Digits): Indicate the Indiana TID number and location number as
they appear on the RRMC. This number must be in the following format: 0001234567-001. If this number is not present or not in this format,
the ST-108A WILL BE REJECTED by the license branch and the purchaser will have to return to the auction to obtain the valid number.
Address of Auction: Indicate the address of the auction as it appears on the RRMC.
Section B - Calculation of Sales/Use Tax
Line 1- Enter the total gross selling price of the vehicle, trailer, or watercraft sold at auction.
Line 2 - Multiply the sales price (Line 1) by the Indiana sales tax rate of 7% (.07).
Section C - Vehicle Identifi cation Information of Purchase

Year: Indicate the year the vehicle, trailer, or watercraft was manufactured.
Make and Model: Indicate the make and model name for the vehicle, trailer, or watercraft.
Section D - Certifi cation of Exemption Claimed

Exemptions available for a vehicle or watercraft purchased at auction are:
1.
Vehicles or watercraft purchased by Indiana or federal governmental units or their instrumentalities.
2.
Vehicles or watercraft purchased by nonprofi t organizations operated exclusively for religious, charitable, or educational purposes
