Orang yang hampir hendak meninggalkan Malaysia
Jika Ketua Pengarah mempunyai sebab untuk mempercayai bahawa seseorang orang kena cukai hampir hendak meninggalkan Malaysia sebelum apa-apa cukai jualan yang terhutang olehnya menjadi kena dibayar mengikut Akta ini, cukai jualan itu hendaklah, jika difikirkan patut oleh Ketua Pengarah, dibayar pada suatu tarikh yang lebih awal sebagaimana yang ditetapkan oleh Ketua Pengarah dan jika tempat orang kena cukai itu berada diketahui oleh Ketua Pengarah, orang kena cukai itu hendaklah diberitahu dengan sewajarnya.
