Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement

The Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (SSTGA) is a collaborative initiative among U.S. states aimed at simplifying sales tax collection and administration. It standardizes sales tax regulations across participating states, making it easier for businesses to comply with tax rules. This agreement helps reduce the burden of sales tax on retailers, particularly those operating online, by offering consistent tax rates and rules. Ultimately, it seeks to create a fairer marketplace, ensuring that all businesses, regardless of location, can compete fairly while facilitating efficient collection of taxes due to states.
