A. In the event an exporter diverts motor fuel removed from a terminal in this state from an intended destination outside this state as shown on the terminal-issued shipping papers to a destination within this state, the exporter, in addition to compliance with the notification provided for in Section 46 of this act, shall notify and pay the tax imposed by Section 4 of this act to the state upon the same terms and conditions as if the exporter were an occasional importer licensed under Section 18 of this act. Each supplier who elects to precollect tax pursuant to this act shall not be subject to any civil penalties or interest imposed pursuant to this act for any corrections resulting from a diversion of the motor fuel from the original destination as represented by the purchaser or the agent of the purchaser. However, the supplier and exporter under this subsection may, by mutual agreement, permit the supplier to assume the liability of the exporter and adjust the taxes of the exporter payable to the supplier. B. In the event that an exporter removes from a bulk plant in this state motor fuel as to which the tax imposed by this act has previously been paid or accrued, the exporter may apply for and the state shall issue a refund of the tax upon a showing of proof of export satisfactory to the Commission in conformity with Section 11 of this act. C. In the event that an unlicensed importer diverts motor fuel from a destination outside this state to a destination inside this state after having removed the product from a terminal outside this state, the importer, in addition to compliance with the notification provided for in Section 46 of this act, shall notify the state and shall pay the tax imposed by this act to this state upon the same terms and conditions as if the unlicensed importer were a licensed occasional importer subject to Section 18 of this act without deduction for the allowances provided by Section 27 of this act. However, an importer who has purchased the product from a licensed supplier may, by mutual agreement with the supplier, permit the supplier to assume the liability of the importer and adjust the taxes of the importer payable to the supplier. D. All licensed importers shall otherwise report and pay tax on diversions into this state of imported product under Section 18 of this act in accordance with the rules applicable to that license class. However, an importer who has purchased the product from a licensed supplier may, by mutual agreement with the supplier, permit the supplier to assume the liability of the importer and adjust the taxes of the importer payable to the supplier. E. If a monthly report is filed or the amount due is remitted later than the time required by this act, the tax remitter shall pay to the Commission all of the motor fuel tax the remitter collected from the sale of motor fuel during the taxable period in addition to penalties and interest. F. In the event of a legal diversion from a destination in this state to another state, Section 45 of this act shall apply and an unlicensed exporter diverting the product shall apply for a refund from this state in conformity with paragraph 2 of Section 10 of this act and Section 11 of this act. However, a supplier may take a credit for diversions directed by that supplier for the account of the supplier. Additionally, the exporter may, by mutual agreement with the supplier, assign the claim of the exporter to the supplier for which the supplier may take a credit. G. In the event that the second state involved in a cross- border shipment has entered into a multi-state compact with this state, the diverter shall pay or seek refund only upon the difference in state taxes with notice to both states upon proof shown of payment to the actual destination state. The Commission shall periodically determine procedures for making this adjustment and a list of those states which meet these criteria.
