Shared Services from the Alaska Municipal League
These shared services are offered to strengthen local governments who may either not have access to or the capacity to manage them on their own.
The ARSSTC was established via an intergovernmental agreement in 2019 to coordinate sales tax collection for remote sales into Alaska.
The ARSSTC provides governance over the streamlined, single-level administration of sales tax collection and remittance; while ensuring due diligence.
The Alaska Municipal League is committed to a responsible and responsive approach to implementation of remote sales tax collection and remittance in Alaska.
