"§ 105‑164.3.  Definitions.

The following definitions apply in this Article:

SECTION 2.  This act becomes effective March 1, 2005, and applies to purchases made on or after that date. An interstate passenger air carrier that paid tax on tangible personal property imposed by Article 5 of Chapter 105 of the General Statutes may apply to the Department of Revenue for a refund of any excess tax paid to the extent the refund is the result of the change in the law enacted by this section. A request for a refund must be made on or before January 1, 2016. A request for refund received after that date is barred. This act does not affect the rights or liabilities of the State, a taxpayer, or another person arising under a statute amended or repealed by this act before the effective date of its amendment or repeal; nor does it affect the right to any refund or credit of a tax that accrued under the amended or repealed statute before the effective date of its amendment or repeal.
