The Rhode Island Division of Taxation reminds remote sellers,
marketplace facilitators, and referrers that they must register with the Division and collect and remit Rhode Island sales and use
tax effective Monday, July 1, 2019, if they meet or exceed certain thresholds involving
sales.
It is the result of a recently enacted Rhode Island law, which
followed a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case known as Wayfair. One consequence of the law is that, effective Monday, July 1, 2019, some online retailers that
had not been collecting and remitting Rhode Island sales and use tax on
purchases made by individuals and businesses in Rhode Island will begin to do so.
