I agree to withhold a 2% tax from every sale of fish or other seafood from a Nooksack tribal fisher. In the event that the taxes remitted do not reflect the true market value, the tax will be calculated according to a consensus of the current market value as determined by the tribal harvest manager.
I agree to remit taxes on a quarterly basis. The taxes from the previous quarter would be due the following month. The tax payment schedule is as follows:
Quarter: Payment Due:
1st Quarter (Jan-March) April
2nd Quarter (April-June) July
3rd Quarter (July-Sept.) October
4th Quarter (Oct.-Dec.) January
To insure proper credit, please include the fish ticket numbers when remitting tax payment. Checks and money orders shall be payable to the Nooksack Fish Commission.
Please remit tax proceeds to:
Accounting Office
Nooksack Indian Tribe
P.O. Box 157
Deming, WA. 98244
“I agree to pay interest at the rate of two percent (2 %) per month on taxes not remitted as required above.”
Tribal members who have not remitted taxes in full from the previous year may not renew their buyer’s license and their commercial fishing permits.
