1. Whenever any vehicle ceases to be exempt from taxation under NRS 371.101, 371.102, 371.103 or 371.104 because the owner no longer meets the requirements for the exemption provided in those sections, its owner shall immediately notify the Department of the fact.
2. If a person fails to notify the Department as required by subsection 1 and as a result of such failure is allowed a tax exemption to which he or she is not entitled, there shall be added to and collected with the tax otherwise due a penalty equal to double the amount of the tax. If the person’s failure is fraudulent and results in his or her receiving a tax exemption to which he or she is not entitled, the person is also guilty of a gross misdemeanor.
