KCCI-TV: Online retailer giant Amazon says it will no longer be tax-free for Iowans starting Jan. 1. An Amazon spokeswoman said, “Amazon will be required to collect sales tax in Iowa beginning on Jan. 1, 2017,” making Iowa the 31st state in which orders made on Amazon.com will include a sales tax. Neighboring state South Dakota has already passed a law that requires businesses to collect sales tax after making a certain amount.
