Title 40, Chapter 7, Code of Alabama 1975, requires that, each year every person report to the county taxing official,
a complete list of all business personal property owned by the taxpayer on October 1 of the tax year, except
property which is or may be assessed by the Alabama Department of Revenue. This form must be completely filled
out and all instructions followed in order to complete the assessing process for business personal property. State
law requires that this form be signed by the taxpayer or official agent.
1. Complete the spaces provided above for “doing business as” (if different from the owner’s name) and provide the
business address.
2. Provide the name of the landowner.
3. Also provide the business type such as restaurant, department store, etc., and the date the business was established.
4. A complete itemized listing must be provided of all personal property owned on October 1. Alternately, a copy of the
depreciation schedule used in preparing the most recent income tax return, listing the property owned by the taxpayer
at the close of the fiscal year may be submitted. The depreciation schedule must be adjusted for additions and
deletions so that it will contain property owned by the business on the October 1 lien date.
Regardless of the reporting method chosen, you must provide the name or type of personal property, the year of acquisi -
tion, the cost when acquired, and any property which has been fully depreciated but was still owned on October 1.
The reported cost should include invoice price, freight, and installation cost, sales and/or use tax, extra
foundations necessary to support the equipment, and other costs incurred for the use of the property.
If you own property in more than one taxing jurisdiction within the county you must identify the property in each
jurisdiction.
PART A must be used to list your personal property or a separate schedule may be attached.
