The 2011 co-called e-commerce volume at approx. $3.5 trillion. The volume of e-commerce is expected to increase and state and local governments are concerned because collection of sales tax on these transactions is difficut to enforce. Under current law, states cannot reach beyond their borders and compel out-of-state Internet vendors (those without nexus in the buyer¿s state) to collect the use tax owed by state residents and businesses. The Supreme Court ruled that requiring remote vendors to collect the use tax would pose an undue burden on interstate commerce. Estimates put this lost tax revenue at approx. $8.6 billion. This report discusses the Streamlined Sales and use Tax Agree. and related economic issues. Illus. This is a print on demand report.

Sales taxes are an important source of revenue for most states. The expansion of Internet commerce, where vendors and customers are often in different states, has eroded part of that revenue stream. As a result of U.S. Supreme Court decisions, states are prevented from requiring remote (out-of-state) vendors to collect sales taxes. The Court noted that it would be too burdensome on interstate commerce for remote vendors to comply with each state's unique tax code. For this reason, several states are participating in an initiative to simplify and coordinate their tax codes -- called the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (SSUTA). The member states hope that Congress could be persuaded to allow them to require out-of-state vendors to collect taxes from customers in SSUTA member states. In the 109th Congress, two bills, S. 2152 (Enzi) and S. 2153 (Dorgan), have been introduced that would allow states that have adopted the SSUTA to compel out-of-state vendors to collect sales and use taxes. This report will be updated as legislative events warrant. Cameron Ackroyd, an intern in the Government and Finance Division of CRS, contributed to this report.
