A bill to extend the moratorium enacted by the Internet Tax Freedom Act through 2006, and encourage States to simplify their sales and use taxes.
Expresses the sense of Congress that elements of a State law providing for a simplified sales and use tax system for remote sales should include, among other things: (1) a centralized, one-stop, multi-State registration system for sellers; (2) uniform definitions for goods or services that are included in the tax base; (3) uniform and simple rules for attributing transactions to particular taxing jurisdictions; (4) uniform procedures for the certification of software that sellers rely on to determine State and local use tax rates and taxability; and (5) uniform electronic filing and remittance methods.
Prohibits a State requiring a seller who lacks nexus with, or a tax obligation to, the State from collecting or remitting sales or use taxes on any sales in that State until Congress provides such authority to the States by a specified joint resolution.
