Answer
Gross premiums charged, less any return premiums, for surplus lines coverages placed with non-admitted insurers are subject to a premium receipts tax of three percent, which shall be collected from the insured by the Surplus Lines Broker at the time of delivery of policy or other confirmation of insurance, in addition to the full amount of the gross premium charged by the insurer for the insurance. The tax on any portion of the premium unearned at termination of insurance shall be returned to the policyholder by the surplus lines broker. Nothing contained in this section will preclude a Surplus Lines Broker from charging a fee to the purchaser of the contract sufficient to recover the amount of this tax.
