Tariffs are making headlines, but how do they impact your sales tax obligations? In this episode, Jeff Meigs breaks down what tariffs are, how they’re treated for sales and use tax purposes, and why, unlike most tax questions, the answer here is surprisingly straightforward. From Washington State’s guidance to best practices for invoicing and compliance, you’ll learn why tariffs are generally part of the taxable base, how businesses handle them in pricing, and what to watch for in state-specific rules.
