It shall be the duty of the personal representative of the estate of any individual who dies a nonresident of this state but who owns or controls real property located in this state or personal property having a business situs in this state and whose estate is subject to the filing of a federal estate tax return to file with the commissioner a duplicate of the federal estate tax return which the personal representative is required to make to the federal authorities and to pay a tax, including interest on the tax, at the time and under the terms and conditions as set forth in Code Section 48-12-2 for the estates of resident decedents. The amount of tax to be paid by the personal representative pursuant to this Code section shall be that amount which bears the same ratio to the total state tax credit allowable for federal estate tax purposes as the value of the property taxable in this state bears to the value of the entire gross estate for federal estate tax purposes. If, after the filing of a duplicate return and the payment of the state estate tax and any interest due on the state estate tax, the amount allowable as a credit for state death taxes as finally determined for federal estate tax purposes by the federal authorities is increased or decreased with respect to the amount shown on the original return, the personal representative of the estate shall file with the commissioner a copy of the documentation received from the federal authorities and such other or additional documentation as the commissioner may require showing all changes made in the original return and the increase or decrease in the amount allowable as a credit for state death taxes. The personal representative shall pay any additional tax due plus interest on such tax or shall receive a refund for any overpayment of the tax plus interest on the amount of the refund at the time and under the terms and conditions as set forth in Code Section 48-12-2 for the estates of resident decedents.
