Sec. 17.5. (a) To claim a credit or refund, or both, a person must provide a sworn statement to the bureau that the person is entitled to the credit or refund, or both, claimed by the person.

(b) The bureau may inspect records of a person claiming a credit or refund, or both, under this chapter to determine whether a credit or refund, or both, was properly allowed against the excise tax imposed under this chapter for a boat owned by the person.

(c) If the bureau determines that a credit or refund, or both, was improperly allowed to a person for a boat, the person shall pay the bureau the amount of the credit and refund that was improperly allowed to the person plus a penalty equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of the credit or refund, or both, that was improperly allowed to the person. The tax collected under this section shall be distributed to the county treasurer of the county where the boat's tax situs is located. However, the bureau shall retain any penalty collected under this subsection.
