AI Summary
This bill amends the Tax Reform Code of 1971 to expand the gross receipts tax to include digital advertising services, which are defined as advertisements displayed on a digital interface, such as a website or application, accessible to a user. The tax will apply to digital advertising services displayed to a user within the Commonwealth, including banner advertising, search engine advertising, and similar services that use user data. However, this new tax will not apply to gross receipts from advertising services displayed on digital interfaces owned or operated by broadcast television or radio stations, or by news media entities primarily engaged in newsgathering, reporting, or publishing. This change will take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.
