Streamlined Sales Tax Project

The Streamlined Sales Tax Project (SSTP) is an initiative aimed at simplifying and modernizing sales tax systems in the United States. It was created to help states collect sales tax more effectively, particularly from online sales. The project establishes standardized sales tax rules and processes, which makes it easier for businesses to comply, regardless of where they operate. By promoting uniformity across states, the SSTP seeks to reduce confusion for both consumers and retailers, ultimately ensuring fair tax collection and supporting local economies without overwhelming small businesses.
