Tax on DROs?

[gwb]

Is sales tax charged on the $37. DROS fee?
It listed under the firearm cost and taxed.
This was a in-stock firearm at a Bay Area retailer.


Thanks for any info.

Who answers questions regarding the applicability of sales tax to the DROS fee?

Questions regarding sales tax should be directed to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration. Their website address is www.cdtfa.ca.gov.

From the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's website at https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/industry/gun-dealers.htm:

On and after January 1, 1999, the CA DOJ transfer fee is not subject to tax.

Thank you Sir. I saw that but was unsure if it had changed.
