Quotables:

• “This is a type of tax that maybe may not be top of mind for taxpayers out there, but definitely one that can maybe be a surprise unfortunately under audit where we tend to see that come in as a surprise, or inquires from the state.” - Stacey Roberts [00:19]
• 
  
• 
  
• “A lot of times, the vendor will not charge tax. So if they did not charge tax on an item that’s actually taxable in your jurisdiction, then you need to accrue and self-remit the use tax to the jurisdiction.” - Connie Zoerink [01:29]
