A BILL TO BE ENTITLED

AN ACT

relating to the exemption from sales and use taxes for certain

aircraft components and other property required for normal aircraft

operations.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:

SECTION 1. Section 151.328(e), Tax Code, is amended to read

as follows:

(e) Tangible personal property that is permanently affixed

or attached as a component part of an aircraft [
owned or operated by

a person described by Subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2),
] or that is

necessary for the normal operations of the aircraft and is pumped,

poured, or otherwise placed in the aircraft[
,
] is exempted from the

taxes imposed by this chapter.

SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act does not

affect tax liability accruing before the effective date of this

Act. That liability continues in effect as if this Act had not been

enacted, and the former law is continued in effect for the

collection of taxes due and for civil and criminal enforcement of

the liability for those taxes.

SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2025.
