- KPMG reports that a food delivery platform in Missouri is not required to collect and remit sales taxes on sales made to Missouri customers from in-state restaurants.
- The platform can transfer sales taxes collected on behalf of the restaurants to the restaurants themselves.
- The tax authority compared the platform’s role to that of a financial institution or credit card company, which are not required to collect sales taxes on payments they facilitate.
- The ruling does not address the state’s marketplace facilitator law.
