Special Occupational Taxpayers

Special Occupational Taxpayers

Special Occupational Taxpayers are a group of Federal Firearm Licensees who manufacture, import and/or transfer NFA weapons.[1] The National Firearms Act Special Occupational Taxpayer class is part of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

The Special Occupational Tax is due on or before July 1 of each year. The tax rate for every importer and manufacturer is $1,000 per year or part of a year. The tax rate for each dealer is $500 a year or part of a year. Importers and manufacturers engaged in business with less than $500,000 in gross receipts in the most recent taxable year are given relief in the form of a $500 reduction in SOT tax payment making the total SOT tax $500.[2] In addition to the SOT tax, all importers and manufacturers must pay an annual Excise tax to the TTB for firearms imported or manufactured for re-sale.[3]
