Bill > AB330

This bill extends the Local Prepaid Mobile Telephony Services Collection Act until January 1, 2031, maintaining current regulations around how local governments can collect taxes and charges on prepaid mobile communication services. Specifically, the bill suspends local authorities' ability to impose utility user taxes on prepaid communication services and instead requires these taxes to be collected by sellers at the point of sale, with funds being transmitted to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration and then distributed to the appropriate local jurisdictions. The bill allows consumers to challenge the presumed location of a retail transaction by filing a claim under penalty of perjury. By extending the existing law, the bill technically expands the potential for perjury charges, which is considered a state-mandated local program. The bill also includes a provision stating that no reimbursement is required for implementing these changes, based on the law's potential creation or modification of criminal infractions. The primary purpose is to provide continuity to the existing taxation framework for prepaid mobile services for an additional five years beyond the current expiration date.
