A HUGE issue is the fact you have deal with over 44,000 sales tax jurisdictions. That could make accounting a very messy issue, to say the least.
Now, if we have each state designate a single sales tax rate for online sales, then it would be easy to implement.”””
NOT EXACTLY-—You would still have to isolate your sales to each state & the tax you collected for each state-—even if the rate was the same. You would have to file forms in each state. Some require monthly-—some quarterly—some annually.
Not easy. I have completed sales tax forms for clients for over 48 years. Not easy with this sea change in the rules.
I think what may happen is that we’ll see every state designate a single online sales tax rate, with filings done every half year. And there will be a single clearinghouse for these filings to save a lot of time and aggravation.
