For the purpose of the proper administration of this chapter and to prevent evasion of the sales tax it is presumed that all gross receipts are subject to the tax until the contrary is established.

If a sale of tangible personal property is transacted by drop shipment, the third-party vendor is relieved of the burden of proving that the sale is not a sale at retail if:(a) The third-party vendor: (1) Takes from his or her customer a certificate to the effect that the property is purchased for resale; or(2) Obtains any other evidence acceptable to the Department that the property is purchased for resale; and(b) His or her customer:(1) Is engaged in the business of selling tangible personal property; and(2) Is selling the property in the regular course of business.Added to NRS by 1967, 900; A 2007, 2314; 2011, 2759; 2021, 2012Amended by 2021, Ch. 342,§17, eff. 10/1/2021.Added to NRS by 1967, 900; A 2007, 2314; 2011, 2759
