Mineral documentary tax; repeal.
SB 2814 repeals Mississippi's mineral documentary tax, which was a tax on documents related to mineral rights transactions (such as leases or transfers). The bill also amends related sections of the Mississippi Code to remove references to this tax, updating definitions of mineral interests and procedures for tax exemptions. This change directly affects mineral rights holders, landowners, and county tax officials by eliminating a specific tax and adjusting the legal framework for mineral tax exemptions. The repeal does not alter other tax rates or create new obligations, solely removing the documented tax provision.
