1. The taxes imposed under NRS 680B.027 must be collected by the Department of Taxation and promptly deposited with the State Treasurer for credit to the State General Fund.

2. If the tax is not paid by the insurer on or before the date required for payment, the tax then becomes delinquent, and payment thereof may be enforced by court action instituted on behalf of the State by the Attorney General. The Attorney General may employ additional counsel in the city where the home office of the insurer is located, subject to the approval of compensation for such services by the State Board of Examiners. The administrative and substantive enforcement provisions of chapters 360 and 372 of NRS apply to the enforcement of the taxes imposed under NRS 680B.027.

3. Upon the tax becoming delinquent, the Executive Director of the Department of Taxation shall notify the Commissioner, who shall suspend or revoke the insurer’s certificate of authority pursuant to NRS 680A.190.

4. If a dispute arises between an insurer and the State as to the amount of tax, if any, payable, the insurer is entitled to pay under protest the tax in the amount assessed by the Department of Taxation, without waiving or otherwise affecting any right of the insurer to recover any amount determined, through appropriate legal action taken by the insurer against the Department of Taxation, to have been in excess of the amount of tax lawfully payable.

5. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 680C.110, all taxes, fees, licenses, fines and charges collected under this Code, including the general premium tax provided for under NRS 680B.027 and as increased in any instances pursuant to NRS 680A.330, must be promptly deposited with the State Treasurer for credit to the State General Fund.
