2 | residence. In addition, the retailer must retain a signed copy | ||||||
3 | of the statement in his or her records. Nothing in this item | ||||||
4 | shall be construed to require the removal of the vehicle from | ||||||
5 | this state following the filing of an intent to title the | ||||||
6 | vehicle in the purchaser's state of residence if the purchaser | ||||||
7 | titles the vehicle in his or her state of residence within 30 | ||||||
8 | days after the date of sale. The tax collected under this Act | ||||||
9 | in accordance with this item (25-5) shall be proportionately | ||||||

11 | rate imposed under this Act.

4 | location where the aircraft is to be titled or registered, | ||||||
5 | the address of the primary physical location of the | ||||||
