To extend for 5 years the moratorium enacted by the
Internet Tax Freedom Act, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SEC. 4. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS.
It is the sense of the Congress that a State tax relat-
ing to electronic commerce, to avoid being multiple or dis-
criminatory, should include the following:
(1) a centralized, one-stop, multi-State registra-
tion system for sellers;
(2) uniform definitions for goods or services
that might be included in the tax base;
(3) uniform and simple rules for attributing
transactions to particular taxing jurisdictions;
(4) uniform rules for the designation and iden-
tification of purchasers exempt from the non-mul-
tiple and non-discriminatory tax system, including a
database of all exempt entities and a rule ensuring
that reliance on such database shall immunize sellers
from liability;
(5) uniform procedures for the certification of
software that sellers rely on to determine non-mul-
tiple and non-discriminatory taxes and taxability;
(6) uniform bad debt rules;
(7) uniform tax returns and remittance forms;
(8) consistent electronic filing and remittance
methods;
(9) State administration of all non-multiple and
non-discriminatory taxes;
(10) uniform audit procedures;
(11) reasonable compensation for tax collection
that reflects the complexity of an individual State’s
tax structure, including the structure of its local
taxes;
(12) exemption from use tax collection require-
ments for remote sellers falling below a specified de
minimis threshold;
(13) appropriate protections for consumer pri-
vacy; and
(14) such other features that the member
States deem warranted to remote simplicity, uni-
formity, neutrality, efficiency, and fairness.
