STREAMLINED SALES TAX PROJECT ANDStreamlined Sales Tax Agreement • September 15th, 2003
The Streamlined Sales Tax Agreement stems from a multi-state effort to get the states together in what is called the Streamlined Sales Tax Project. The main purpose of the project is to facilitate applying state sales and gross receipts taxes to transactions across state boundaries. Vendors have vociferously complained that the quirky and complicated patchwork of sales and gross receipts taxes makes compliance on cross-border transactions nearly impossible and certainly expensive. Hence, they have successfully blocked state efforts to persuade the U.S. Congress to let states tax out-of-state vendors selling products to in-state customers. The project aims to mute those objections.
