                                                CONSUMER USE TAX FORM                      
                      
 If you purchased taxable merchandise outside the State of Arkansas for use, storage, consumption or distribution within the 
 state, a state and local consumer use tax may be due on the purchase price, including transportation charges. Due to the rapid 
 increase in purchases being made through mail order, telephone, and the Internet, it has become a concern that individuals 
 may not be aware of their obligation to report the consumer use tax on untaxed out of state purchases. Examples of 
  merchandise subject to the consumer use tax include cassettes, CD's, books, furniture, jewelry, food, and clothing. 
   
  The use tax is a companion tax to the sales tax whose purpose is to not only raise revenue for the state, but more importantly 
 to protect local merchants, who must collect sales tax, from the unfair advantage of out of state sellers who do not collect 
 Arkansas's sales tax. The use tax has been in effect since 1949. 
  
 The use tax rate is the same as the sales tax rate, 6.50% for all transactions except food purchases which has a reduced rate 
 of 012. 5% plus the applicable city and/or county rates where the merchandise is delivered in the state. The tax applies to the 
 purchase price of the merchandise plus any shipping and handling charges that the merchant adds to your bill. If the total tax 
 due is greater than $100 per month, the use tax report should be filed on a monthly basis. If the total tax due is $25 - $100 per 
 month, the use tax report should be filed on a quarterly basis. If the total tax due is less than $25 per month, the use tax report 
 should be filed on an annual basis.
