State Sales Tax on Federal Property Gift Shop Purchases
This new act allows states to impose sales tax on purchases made at gift shops located on federal property. This means that the cost of souvenirs and other items bought at places like museums or art galleries on federal land might increase due to the addition of state sales tax.
Key points
States can now collect sales tax on purchases at gift shops on federal property.
This includes both in-person and online purchases from such shops, like those at Smithsonian museums or the Kennedy Center.
This could lead to higher prices for consumers buying items in these locations.
