SEPARATE STATING OF THE TAX
3.2.12.8 SEPARATE STATING OF THE TAX: A seller of property who is required to collect and pay over to the department the compensating tax due on the value of property sold for delivery into New Mexico must separately state the compensating tax on the invoice. If the compensating tax is not separately stated on the invoice, it will be presumed that it was not collected and paid over and the buyer must pay the compensating tax. The seller who is liable to collect and pay over the compensating tax may become liable for penalties and interest if the seller fails to collect and pay over.

GENERAL EXAMPLE
3.2.12.9 GENERAL EXAMPLE:
A. The following example illustrates the application of Section 7-9-9 NMSA 1978.
B. Example: A purchases a piece of equipment from X, an El Paso dealer, for $l,000. X is registered with the department as an agent for collection of compensating tax. X bills A as follows:
Equipment $ 1,000
N.M. Comp. Tax 50
$ 1,050
Since X is registered as an agent to collect and pay over compensating tax pursuant to Section 7-9-10 NMSA 1978 and collected compensating tax from A, A is relieved of any compensating tax liability, even if X fails to remit the tax to the department.
