§ 25-1-1-1 — Issuance of license; evidence of payment of personal property tax

It is unlawful for any board, officer, or person to
issue any license, as defined in section 2 of this chapter, to any person
who is a resident of this state, unless the applicant, at the time he
applies for such license, submits, in addition to all other requirements
prescribed by law, a receipt or other evidence showing that he has paid
all his personal property taxes in full. "Other evidence" in the case of
all licenses issued by the bureau of motor vehicles means a statement
signed by the treasurer of the county in which the applicant is a
resident that the applicant has paid all personal taxes assessed against
him, including all delinquent personal property tax; or, if the applicant
owns no personal property subject to taxation, a signed statement from
the assessor of the county in which the applicant resides certifying that
he has made an affidavit to the effect that he owes no delinquent
personal property tax in any county in Indiana.
