Streamlined Sales and Use Tax
The Wisconsin Legislature has passed the legislation necessary to conform Wisconsin's sales and use tax laws to the requirements of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (SSUTA) as part of 2009 Wisconsin Act 2. The conforming legislation, known as the Main Street Equity Act, becomes effective in Wisconsin on October 1, 2009.
Wisconsin petitioned the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board (SSTGB) for membership in the SSTGB as an associate member effective July 1, 2009, through September 30, 2009, and as a full member effective October 1, 2009. On May 12, 2009, the SSTGB voted unanimously to approve Wisconsin as an associate member of the SSTGB effective July 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009 and a full member of the SSTGB effective October 1, 2009. The 22 other states that have already enacted the necessary legislation are: Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, Washington and Wyoming.
