INTERPRETIVE STATEMENT
DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE
[Filed September 3, 2013, 2:23 p.m.]
INTERPRETIVE STATEMENT ISSUED
The department of revenue has issued the following excise tax advisory (ETA):
ETA 3177.2013
Digital Products - General Analysis of Tax Liability
The department initially issued ETA 9003.2010 Digital Products - General Analysis of Tax Liability on November 30, 2010. This ETA is readopted as ETA 3177.2013 so that it is renumbered in a manner consistent with other existing ETAs. This ETA explains the overall process of digital products tax analysis; highlights key considerations in the analysis process; and directs taxpayers to other ETAs and rules for more information. This ETA has been amended to eliminate the table of analytic steps taxpayers use in determining the tax treatment of digital products, which represents subject matter that has been subsequently addressed in WAC 458-20-15503.
