On October 1, 2005, the Streamlined Sales Tax Project (SSTP) went into effect radically changing sales and use tax rules. Since then, 43 states and the District of Columbia have all gotten involved.

The legislation included an amnesty offer to full member states, but it expires on September 30, 2006. Clearly, this legislation will have a profound impact on how you do business—if it has not already.

So, are you up to speed on what SSTP means for your business?
