* Rounded to the nearest whole dollar

  • Fire premiums that include allied lines are assessed the full 100%. If the premiums are separate and distinct (fire and allied) the allied lines portion may be assessed at 25%.
  • For policies covering multiple perils, if the premium charged for each peril is shown separately on the declarations page or elsewhere in the policy, compute the fire marshal tax on the premium for each peril separately using the chart above (with each computation rounded to the nearest dollar). On the ipFile system, enter each peril and its associated premium on a separate line in the coverage code section.
  • If the premiums are not broken out, compute the tax by charging the 1% tax rate against 40% of the entire policy premium. On the ipFile system, enter the entire premium on one coverage code line using the Multi-Line code (2004).
