This insight-driven session bridges the gap between complex sales tax legislation and your association’s day-to-day operations, with specific examples of how the changes may affect membership dues, digital products, international member bases, and in-person events.

01New challenges and opportunities for nonprofits

With many state economies facing a high risk of recession and continued pressure on federal funding, states are aggressively working to expand their tax bases into areas that were previously safe havens for exempt organizations.

We explore:

Shifting nexus thresholds, and why some states are moving from transaction counts to revenue thresholds

New rules for service providers, and why your digital downloads may now be taxable in certain states

How new tariffs change requirements for international shipping and member services

What to expect from heightened enforcement of noncompliance

2026 amnesty opportunities to rectify noncompliance while waiving heavy penalties
