§231-15 Returns to be signed. Every return statement, or other document required to be made for taxation purposes shall be signed in accordance with forms or regulations prescribed by the department of taxation.

The department of taxation may require that, if any person or persons actually prepare or sign a return for another person, the person or persons so preparing or signing the return shall sign a statement showing such facts and such authority to sign such return as may be prescribed by the department, and the department may by regulation define the classes of persons to whom this provision shall apply.
Any other provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding, no oath shall be required upon any tax return. [L 1943, c 4, §§1, 2, 3; RL 1945, §5123; RL 1955, §115-21; am L Sp 1959 2d, c 1, §16; HRS §231-15; am L 1980, c 211, §1]
