I, Vernon Barnett, Commissioner of the Alabama Department of Revenue, pursuant to the power granted to me under §40-2-11, Code of Alabama 1975, hereby declare that because there is a state of emergency resulting from Hurricane Ida, it is necessary to assist and expedite all efforts of relief.

Nothing in this Executive Order shall be construed to permit any waiver of any additional requirements under the Alabama Terminal Excise Tax, including the requirement for suppliers to collect and remit the destination state tax, or from any statute, rule, order or other legal requirement not specifically waived herein.
Because of the ongoing state of emergency resulting from Hurricane Ida, this Executive Order shall be effective until the end of thirty (30) days after the signing of the Executive Order.
