Washington State Department of Revenue & NFT Sales Tax
NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, have been around since 2014, but started gaining momentum in 2021 and have only risen in popularity since. As you can imagine, this has created some sales tax confusion.
Washington state is one of the few states to tackle the taxiblity of NFTs, and on July 1, 2022, the Washington State Department of Revenue published an interim statement on how sales tax applies to NFTs. The statement is “intended to provide general information related to the taxability of certain transactions involving NFTs and does not intend to address any exemptions, exclusions, deductions, credits or other incentives that may apply.” The interim statement functionally defines NFTs as a digital code.
