New Mexico Statutes Chapter 7. Taxation § 7-14A-3.1. Imposition and rate; leased vehicle surcharge

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

A. Except as provided in Subsection B of this section, there is imposed a surcharge on the leasing of a vehicle to another person by a person engaging in business in New Mexico if the lease is subject to the leased vehicle gross receipts tax. The amount of this surcharge is two dollars ($2.00) for each day the vehicle is leased by the person. The surcharge may be referred to as the “leased vehicle surcharge”.

B. The leased vehicle surcharge imposed in Subsection A of this section shall not apply to the lease of a temporary replacement vehicle if the lessee signs a statement that the temporary replacement vehicle is to be used as a replacement for another vehicle that is being repaired, serviced or replaced. For the purposes of this section, “temporary replacement vehicle” means a vehicle that is:

(1) used by an individual in place of another vehicle that is unavailable for use by the individual due to loss, damage, mechanical breakdown or need for servicing; and

(2) leased temporarily by or on behalf of the individual or loaned temporarily to the individual by a vehicle repair facility or dealer while the other vehicle is being repaired, serviced or replaced.
