(commencing with Section 1760) of Part 2 of Division 1 of the
Insurance Code shall pay a gross premium tax of 3 percent for the use
of the state, less 3 percent of returned premiums that were subject
to the tax received by reason of cancellation or reduction of

(A) Insurance coverage for which a tax on the gross premium is due
or has been paid pursuant to Section 1775.5 of the Insurance Code.

(2) If during any calendar quarter 3 percent of the returned
premiums received that were subject to the tax imposed by this part
exceed 3 percent of the gross premiums paid or to be paid by that

quarter, then that person may either carry forward the excess to a
succeeding calendar quarter and apply it as a credit against the 3
percent of gross premiums paid or to be paid by that person in the
succeeding calendar quarter, or the person may elect to receive, and
be paid a refund equal to the amount of taxes paid by the person on
the excess of returned premiums received over gross premiums paid or
to be paid.
(b) For purposes of determining the tax, the total premium paid or
to be paid for all nonadmitted insurance placed in a single
transaction with one underwriter or group of underwriters, whether in
one or more policies, in that calendar quarter during which the
taxable insurance contract or contracts took effect or were renewed,
shall be allocated to this state in the proportion that the total
premium on the insured properties or operations in this state, as
computed on the exposure in this state on the basis of any single
standard rating method in use in all states or countries where the
insurance applies, bears to the total premium so computed in all
states or countries in which that nonadmitted insurance may apply or,

reasonable basis as determined by the Franchise Tax Board in its sole

part, except to the extent that the provision is either inconsistent

penalties otherwise imposed.
(d) (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), interest shall be
allowed and paid on any refund provided under paragraph (2) of
