CTIA - The Wireless Association®: Taxes, Fees & Surcharges
CTIA-The Wireless Association® believes excessive and discriminatory taxes on a service discourage its use, and it makes no sense to place such arbitrary burdens on wireless consumers and Internet access. CTIA supports a fair and equitable tax structure for wireless consumers, and also believes access to the Internet should not be taxed. In general, a wireless tax imposition no higher than the rate placed on general business is fair, and would encourage the use of such a valuable service. Today’s excessive wireless consumer taxes do just the opposite. CTIA also believes the wireless industry should not be subjected to similar treatment by taxing entities and agencies.
