Less paperwork for bullion dealers
The law removes the need for sellers to collect exemption or resale certificates on sales that are tax‑exempt as precious metal bullion under state law (s. 77.54(74)). It applies to both sales tax and use tax on items delivered to Wisconsin. Sellers no longer need a paper or electronic certificate from the buyer for these exempt sales. Dealers must still make sure the sale qualifies as exempt. This change reduces paperwork and speeds up checkout for customers.
