Is there anything that I am required to state in the financing statement?
If the recording tax on the stated indebtedness has been paid at the county level, the following are required:
- The indebtedness language (“Maximum Principal Indebtedness for Tennessee Recording Tax Purposes is $_______________________”)
- A statement to declare that the recording tax on the stated indebtedness has been paid at the county level, and
- Attach a tax receipt to the document if sending your filing in on paper. Enter the tax receipt details (County, date paid, receipt number, and amount paid) online if web filing or web preparing the filing).
Make sure any receipt that you provide is readable. If you request an exemption from the indebtedness tax, you MUST request it in writing with an explanation for the request.
