Starting July 1st, 2019, the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue will start working with Certified Service Providers (CSP's (News - Alert)) to make it easier for out of state individuals and businesses with sales tax collection obligations in Pennsylvania. Remote sellers who do not have a physical presence in Pennsylvania can outsource most of their sales tax administration responsibilities to a CSP.

TaxCloud, the leading CSP for the Streamlined States, can file sales tax returns and collect & forward tax payments to the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue on behalf of its clients. TaxCloud can also help internet sellers determine which products are subject to Pennsylvania sales tax and relieve the seller of certain liabilities upon audit.
