Amazon Sales Tax Laws

Posted by Mike C Posted on Sept 16 2011
Lately there has been a lot of discussion regarding states losing out on collecting sales tax from out of state businesses. California changed it's laws effect July 1st, sometimes referred as the Amazon Law. Basically it means an out of state business with an affiliate located within the state of CA will be required to collect sales tax from CA purchasers. The in state affiliate usually gets paid a commission for referring business to the out of state business. With many states with budget crisis you can assume other states will adopt a similiar law to California.
