34:1B-392 Cultural arts institution, tax credit transfer certificate, selling, assigning. 10. a. A cultural arts institution may apply to the director and the chief executive officer of the authority for a tax credit transfer certificate, covering one or more years. The tax credit transfer certificate, upon receipt thereof by the cultural arts institution from the director and the chief executive officer of the authority, may be sold or assigned, in full or in part in an amount not less than $25,000, in the privilege period during which the cultural arts institution receives the tax credit transfer certificate from the director, to another person who may apply the credit against a tax liability pursuant to section 5 of P.L.1945, c.162 (C.54:10A-5), sections 2 and 3 of P.L.1945, c.132 (C.54:18A-2 and C.54:18A-3), section 1 of P.L.1950, c.231 (C.17:32-15), or N.J.S.17B:23-5. b. The cultural arts institution shall not sell or assign, including a collateral assignment, a tax credit transfer certificate allowed under this section for consideration received by the cultural arts institution of less than 85 percent of the transferred credit amount before considering any further discounting to present value which shall be permitted. The tax credit transfer certificate issued to a cultural arts institution by the director shall be subject to any limitations and conditions imposed on the application of State tax credits pursuant to P.L.2023, c.197 (C.34:1B-383 et al.) and any other terms and conditions that the director may prescribe, provided, however, that the holder of a tax credit certificate may transfer all or part of the tax credit amount, on or after the date of issuance of the tax credit transfer certificate, for use by the transferee in the tax period for which it was issued, in the tax period in which it was issued, or in any of the next three successive tax periods. The transferee may first use the credit against tax liabilities in the tax period in which it was issued or in a succeeding tax period, as authorized in this subsection, without the need to amend the tax return for the tax period for which the credit was issued, subject to the provisions of this section. A transferee may carry forward an unused credit for use in any of the next five successive tax periods, and the unused credit shall expire thereafter. Notwithstanding any provision of this section to the contrary, the amount of tax credits that may be claimed by the transferee in any tax period shall not exceed the total tax credit amount divided by the duration of the eligibility period in years. c. A purchaser or assignee of a tax credit transfer certificate pursuant to this section shall not make any subsequent transfers, assignments, or sales of the tax credit transfer certificate. d. The authority shall publish on its Internet website the following information concerning each tax credit transfer certificate approved by the authority and the director pursuant to this section: (1) the name of the transferor; (2) the name of the transferee; (3) the value of the tax credit transfer certificate; (4) the State tax against which the transferee may apply the tax credit; and (5) the consideration received by the transferor. L.2023, c.197, s.10; amended 2025, c.127, s.8.
