Bill Number: HB 4541
Subject: Use Tax
Sponsor: Joe Tate
MASA Position: Support

Description: Would amend the Use Tax Act to make changes regarding marketplace facilitators. Defines marketplace facilitators as an individual that contracts with marketplace sellers to facilitate the sale of the seller’s products through a physical or electronic marketplace, whether or not the facilitator charges a fee. Additionally, to be defined as a marketplace facilitator, entities must communicate about the offer and acceptance, as well as collection of payment (indirectly or directly). A person that rents out rooms or other facilities for temporary facilities or those who provide internet advertising services, including listing products for sale, would not qualify as a marketplace facilitator.
