In April, North Dakota saw a 500% increase in online sales tax revenue
BISMARCK, N.D. – In April, North Dakota saw a 500% increase in online sales tax revenue because more people were staying at home and shopping, according to North Dakota Tax Department officials.
North Dakota Tax Commissioner Ryan Rauschenberger said last year North Dakota took in half a million dollars in April, in 2020 that number has increased to almost three million.
Rauschenberger said one of the big questions facing the state moving forward, is how much will people continue to spend online throughout the rest of the year, instead of going out and spending money at their area retail shops.
