Is Alaska Adopting a State Sales Tax?

The old mnemonic device for remembering states without a statewide sales tax, “NOMAD” (New Hampshire, Oregon, Montana, Alaska, and Delaware) might be dropping a letter. Specifically “A”, with the introduction of HB 3006 and HB 4005 in Alaska.

HB 3006 and HB 4005 each includes legislative language that would implement a statewide tax on sales of tangible personal property, rents or services at a rate of 2%. The bills would also enable Alaska to enter the Streamlined Sales Tax Agreement along with 24 other member states. The effective date of both bills would be July 1, 2022.
