submitted 79 years ago by ch. 389 to r/title-4-FLAG-AND-SEAL-SEAT-OF-GOVERNMENT-AND-THE-STATES · 141 words · no verdicts yet
A state (or its taxing authority) can fully collect its sales or use tax even on sales or purchases that happen inside a federal area within that state — no one can avoid paying the tax just because the transaction took place on federal land. This rule only covers sales, purchases, receipts, or use that happened after December 31, 1940.
No person shall be relieved from liability for payment of, collection of, or accounting for any sales or use tax levied by any State, or by any duly constituted taxing authority therein, having jurisdiction to levy such a tax, on the ground that the sale or use, with respect to which such tax is levied, occurred in whole or in part within a Federal area; and such State or taxing authority shall have full jurisdiction and power to levy and collect any such tax in any Federal area within such State to the same extent and with the same effect as though such area was not a Federal area.
The provisions of subsection (a) shall be applicable only with respect to sales or purchases made, receipts from sales received, or storage or use occurring, after December 31, 1940.
