  (1)  Licensed distributor who has imported the nonexempt motor fuel.  The precollection shall be made and remitted within three business days after:

  (a)  The nonexempt motor fuel was entered into the state; or

  (b)  A valid import verification number required by this chapter was assigned by the director; whichever occurred earlier.  If the motor fuel was not subject to a precollection agreement with the supplier, the precollection shall be remitted in the manner specified by the director; or

  (2)  Licensed distributor who has imported the nonexempt motor fuel which is subject to a precollection agreement with the supplier.  The precollection shall be made and remitted on or before the last day of the following month unless such day falls upon a weekend or state holiday, in which case the liability would be due the next succeeding business day.  The remittance of all amounts of tax due shall be paid on the basis of ninety-seven percent for gasoline, gasoline blends and gasoline blend stocks and ninety-eight percent for diesel, diesel blends and diesel blend stocks.  The distributor shall remit the tax to the supplier, acting as trustee, who shall remit to the director on behalf of the distributor under the same terms as a supplier payment pursuant to section 142.842 and no import verification number shall be required; or

  (3)  Unlicensed importer at the time the fuel is entered into this state. However, if the supplier of the motor fuel, as shown on the records of the terminal operator, has made a blanket election to precollect tax in accordance with section 142.839, then the importer shall remit the tax to the supplier, acting as trustee, who shall remit to the director on behalf of the importer under the same terms as a supplier payment pursuant to section 142.842, and no import verification number shall be required.
