It is the intent of the legislature to reinstate a tax preference that provides tax relief to nonprofit gun clubs on the purchase of clay targets used to provide recreational shooting activities to customers or members for a fee. A 2016 tax preference review conducted by the joint legislative audit and review committee indicated the tax preference successfully achieved its inferred objective of providing tax relief yet required clarification of legislative intent.
The tax levied by RCW 82.08.020 does not apply to the sales of clay targets purchased by a nonprofit gun club for use in providing the activity of clay target shooting for a fee.
The exemption applies only when the buyer provides the seller with an exemption certificate in a form and manner prescribed by the department. The seller must retain a copy of the certificate for the seller's files.
This section expires January 1, 2035.
