Under legislation approved by the Rhode Island General Assembly and signed into law by Rhode Island Governor Gina M. Raimondo on March 29, 2019, remote sellers, marketplace facilitators, and referrers are required to register with the Division of Taxation and collect and remit Rhode Island sales and use tax, effective July 1, 2019, under certain circumstances.
The new webpage describes the circumstances under which the requirements must be met. The webpage also provides links to important documents and websites. (On a separate section of the page, toward the bottom, there is information about a 2017 law involving non-collecting retailers, retail sale facilitators, and referrers.)
