Martin Eisenstein and Matthew Schaefer Present Webinar on Tax Treatment of Direct Mail and Electronic Communications Post-Wayfair

On August 20, 2019, managing partner Martin Eisenstein and partner Matthew Schaefer co–led a webinar for Strafford Publications on the “Sales Tax Treatment of Direct Mail and Online Communications Post-Wayfair.” The webinar provided corporate tax advisers with guidance on the expanded state sales tax obligations of printers and purchasers of direct mail after the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair. Inc., as well as the still-developing sales tax treatment of electronic communications.  Eisenstein and Schaefer described how state revenue departments and larger printers have reacted to Wayfair in examining sales tax on direct mail, as well as several exemptions that protect buyers and sellers from such taxes in various states.
