type: "Bill"
title: "Sale of Tax Credits"
description: "The act authorizes the department of the treasury (department) to sell insurance premium tax credits to insurance companies that incur state premium tax liability (premium tax credit) and to C corporations that incur state income tax liability (corporate tax credit). The premium tax credit and the corporate tax credit (tax credits) may be offered for sale to insurance companies and C corporations by the department, subject to procedures adopted by the department. The department may contract or consult with an independent third party to manage the sale process, and if it does so, the independent third party must adopt the sale procedures.A qualified taxpayer who purchases a tax credit may claim the tax credit against its premium tax or income tax liability (tax liability), as applicable. The department, in consultation with the office of state planning and budgeting, prior to the sale of a tax credit, may determine the calendar years in which the qualified taxpayer may claim the qualified taxpayer's tax credit against the qualified taxpayer's tax liability. The amount of the tax credit claimed cannot exceed the taxpayer's tax liability for a given year and a tax credit is not refundable. The unused amount carries forward and may be claimed in subsequent years; except that a tax credit cannot be claimed for a tax liability incurred in a taxable year that begins after December 31, 2033. Insurance companies with a qualified home office or regional home office in the state have first priority to purchase premium tax credits.In fiscal year 2025-26, the department is authorized to issue tax credit certificates to qualified taxpayers equal to the lesser of a total face value of up to $125 million or total sales proceeds of up to $100 million, plus any reasonable and necessary administrative, monitoring, and closing costs of the department (closing costs). The minimum proposed tax credit purchase amount must be the greater of either the amount that an independent third party determines to be consistent with market conditions or 80% of the requested dollar amount of tax credits.The act creates the tax credit proceeds cash fund (fund). The proceeds from the issuance of tax credits must be deposited in the fund. Subject to annual appropriation, the department may expend money from the fund for any closing costs associated with implementing and administering the act. Subject to annual appropriation, the department of revenue may expend money from the fund for direct and indirect costs associated with implementing and administering the act. Each month, the state treasurer is required to credit the money generated by the issuance of tax credits to the fund. The department is required to transfer the money in the fund to the general fund, less any amounts used for expenses authorized by the act.For the 2025-26 state fiscal year, the act appropriates $3,173,500 to the department. The appropriation is from the fund and must be used for tax credit administration.APPROVED by Governor August 28, 2025EFFECTIVE August 28, 2025(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)"

# Colorado HB 1004 (2025B) — Sale of Tax Credits
The act authorizes the department of the treasury (department) to sell insurance premium tax credits to insurance companies that incur state premium tax liability (premium tax credit) and to C corporations that incur state income tax liability (corporate tax credit). The premium tax credit and the corporate tax credit (tax credits) may be offered for sale to insurance companies and C corporations by the department, subject to procedures adopted by the department. The department may contract or consult with an independent third party to manage the sale process, and if it does so, the independent third party must adopt the sale procedures.A qualified taxpayer who purchases a tax credit may claim the tax credit against its premium tax or income tax liability (tax liability), as applicable. The department, in consultation with the office of state planning and budgeting, prior to the sale of a tax credit, may determine the calendar years in which the qualified taxpayer may claim the qualified taxpayer's tax credit against the qualified taxpayer's tax liability. The amount of the tax credit claimed cannot exceed the taxpayer's tax liability for a given year and a tax credit is not refundable. The unused amount carries forward and may be claimed in subsequent years; except that a tax credit cannot be claimed for a tax liability incurred in a taxable year that begins after December 31, 2033. Insurance companies with a qualified home office or regional home office in the state have first priority to purchase premium tax credits.In fiscal year 2025-26, the department is authorized to issue tax credit certificates to qualified taxpayers equal to the lesser of a total face value of up to $125 million or total sales proceeds of up to $100 million, plus any reasonable and necessary administrative, monitoring, and closing costs of the department (closing costs). The minimum proposed tax credit purchase amount must be the greater of either the amount that an independent third party determines to be consistent with market conditions or 80% of the requested dollar amount of tax credits.The act creates the tax credit proceeds cash fund (fund). The proceeds from the issuance of tax credits must be deposited in the fund. Subject to annual appropriation, the department may expend money from the fund for any closing costs associated with implementing and administering the act. Subject to annual appropriation, the department of revenue may expend money from the fund for direct and indirect costs associated with implementing and administering the act. Each month, the state treasurer is required to credit the money generated by the issuance of tax credits to the fund. The department is required to transfer the money in the fund to the general fund, less any amounts used for expenses authorized by the act.For the 2025-26 state fiscal year, the act appropriates $3,173,500 to the department. The appropriation is from the fund and must be used for tax credit administration.APPROVED by Governor August 28, 2025EFFECTIVE August 28, 2025(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
