Sales Tax on Digital Products

Project Description

At its July 28, 2021 meeting, the Uniformity Committee considered a recommendation from the Standing Subcommittee to begin drafting the outline of a white paper on state sales taxation of digital products. The committee agreed that MTC staff would begin the process by drafting a detailed outline of the issues to be included in that white paper and conducting research and stakeholder interviews. At the August 2, 2022 meeting of the Uniformity Committee, the committee reviewed the proposed draft outline and agreed that a project work group should be formed to provide ongoing input and review of the white paper, as it is developed.

For information about this or any other MTC uniformity project, contact MTC Uniformity Counsel Helen Hecht at hhecht@mtc.gov.
