A computer printout of your machine inventory, or the completed supplement, Form AP-144, Coin-Operated Machine Inventory

a. serial number/inventory I.D. number

c. type
• If you purchase additional machines during the year, you must file the Application For Additional Coin-Operated Machine Tax Permits,
Form AP-141.
• Each time a machine is moved to a different location, within 10 days of the move, the holder of the Registration Certificate must notify the

a vendor, you are not required to report the tax. That vendor must provide you with a receipt showing, among other things, the amount
of use tax collected. You should retain a copy of the receipt showing you paid Texas use tax.
• A registration certificate holder may make one or two sales of coin-operated machines during any 12-month period if the certificate
holder does not hold out as engaging (or does not habitually engage) in the business of selling machines without losing the licensing
exemption. Before the third sale of a coin-operated machine in a 12-month period, a general business or import license must be
obtained. See Rule 3.602.

a General Business License or an Import License, using Form AP-147. Refer to Comptroller Rule 3.602.
