Section 45-40-245.01
Payment of taxes; report.
Any sales and use tax, gross receipts tax, privilege license, or excise tax based on gross receipts, or similar tax levied by the Lawrence County Commission or for the benefit of the county shall be due and payable in monthly installments on or before the 20th day of the month next succeeding the month in which the tax accrues. All taxes levied shall be paid to and collected by the county commission, or its designee, at the same time as Alabama state sales tax is due to be paid to the State Department of Revenue. On or prior to the due dates of any tax to be collected, each person subject to such tax shall file with the county commission, or its designee, a report or return in the form as may be prescribed by the county commission, or its designee, setting forth, with respect to all sales and business transactions that are required to be used as a measure of the tax levied, a correct statement of the gross proceeds of all the sales and the gross receipts of all business transactions. The reports shall also include other items of information pertinent to the tax and the amount thereof as the county commission or its designee may require. Any person subject to the tax levied may defer reporting credit sales until after their collection, and in the event the person so defers reporting them, the person shall thereafter include in each monthly report all credit collections made during the month preceding, and shall pay the tax due thereon at the time of filing the report.
