S3194A-2011 Memo

BILL NUMBER:S3194A

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to amend the tax law, in relation to exempting the
sale of farrier
supplies and services from the sales and use taxes

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section 1 adds a new Subdivision (hh) of
Section 1115 of the Tax Law to exempt all farrier services from the
sales tax.

PURPOSE & JUSTIFICATION:
To clarify the sales tax law to specify that
farrier services provided to commercial horse boarding operations are
exempt from sales tax.

In 2000, sales tax reliefwas provided to farm-related purchases
including commercial horse boarding operations. The existing Tax Law
is confusing and open to interpretation as to what services are or
are not taxable for horse boarding. Raising of horses is a growing
and vital part of agriculture in New York State and removing the
sales tax from farrier services will remove any confusion from the
law and make New York a more friendly state for the horse business.

EXISTING LAW:
A sales tax exemption is granted for horse instruction,
training and showing, and a tax exemption is given for the horseshoes
or nails; but the farrier service of caring for the hooves, preparing
and nailing shoes, is taxable.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
