<br />Fiscal Analysis
<br />
<br />The bill would add a new section to Chapter 11 of the Tax Code to provide a new exemption from ad
<br />valorem taxation for "goods in transit."
<br />
<br />To qualify for the exemption, personal property would have to be acquired in Texas or imported into
<br />Texas and stored at a Texas location in which the owner of the goods did not have a direct or indirect
<br />ownership interest.
<br />
<br />Oil and gas and their immediate derivatives, aircraft, and dealer's special inventories would not qualify
