ORS 307.885 Applicability of other provisions of tax law

Unless the context requires otherwise, the provisions of ORS chapters 305, 314 and 316 governing the audit and examination of reports and returns, confidentiality of reports and returns, determination of deficiencies, assessments, claims for refunds, penalties, interest, jeopardy assessments, warrants, conferences and appeals to the Oregon Tax Court, and related procedures, apply to ORS 307.870 to 307.890 as if the heavy equipment rental tax were a tax imposed upon or measured by net income. The provisions apply to the taxpayer liable for the tax and to any qualified heavy equipment provider required to collect the tax.

Any amount collected and required to be remitted to the Department of Revenue is considered a tax upon the qualified heavy equipment provider required to collect the tax and the qualified heavy equipment provider is considered a taxpayer.
