Current through Vol. 42, No. 1, September 16, 2024
(a) Vendors operating a multi-level distribution system will collect tax on the gross receipts of the retail value of the products sold. This tax is to be passed through the multi-level distributors, who will not be required to hold an Oklahoma sales tax permit, to the consumers/users.
(b) For example, the vendor who sells to distributors, who in turn sell to consumers/users at home parties, is required to collect, report, and remit sales tax on the total amount of gross receipts received by the vendor's distributors from the sales of tangible personal property or taxable services. The distributors will collect the tax from the consumer.
(c) Shipping and handling charges associated with the shipment of multi-level sales merchandise to the distributor or the distributor's customers are not subject to sales tax, if separately stated.
(d) If the products are not sold by the distributor in the original form or packaging created by the multi-level vendor, but instead used as an ingredient in or component to a separate product, the distributor must collect sales tax on the total sales price of the final product to the consumer.
