Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 3141 amends the Tax Code to prohibit a person from transporting cigarettes from this state for sale in another state without first affixing to the cigarettes the stamp required by the state in which the cigarettes are to be sold or paying any other excise tax on the cigarettes imposed by the state in which the cigarettes are to be sold. A person may not affix a stamp or pay an excise tax if prohibited by the state in which the cigarettes are to be sold.
