Every new business owning tangible personal property on January 1 must file an initial tax return. In any year the assessed value of your tangible personal property exceeds $25,000, you are required to file a return. Taxpayers who lease, lend or rent property must also file a return.
Tangible personal property can be subject to ad valorem taxes, meaning the amount of tax payable depends on each item's fair market value. In most states, a business that owned tangible property on January 1 must file a tax return form with the property appraisal office no later than April 1 in the same year.
The Property Appraiser establishes the taxable value of tangible personal property. The millage, or rate of taxation, is set by the Board of County Commissioners, School Board, City Council and governing bodies of other independent special taxing districts and authorities.
Deductible personal property taxes are those based only on the value of personal property such as a boat or car. The tax must be charged to you on a yearly basis, even if it's collected more than once a year or less than once a year.
Types of Exemptions Government Agency Loans, Industrial Loans, and Aircraft Liens: Certain types of mortgage transactions are exempt from the intangible tax. This includes loans provided by government agencies, mortgages associated with industrial purposes, and those secured by a lien on aircraft.
Where to Report Personal Property on Your Taxes. Claim the itemized deduction on Schedule A – State and local personal property taxes (Line 5c). Taxes you deduct elsewhere on your return — like for a home office or rental — don't qualify for this deduction.
