Short answer...no. But, it depends on the state. In most states, sales to federal, state and local governments are exempt from tax. But there are often restrictions, such as: 1. the purchase must be made directly by the agency, on the agency's PO, received by the agency and paid by the agency, or.
A VAT at the federal level would be similar to state sales taxes. States would likely strongly resist any federal attempt to usurp their sales tax authority because they rely on sales tax revenue. A VAT at the federal level would likely force states to apply their sales taxes to a uniform set of goods and services.
