General Information
Who should complete Form ST-586?

What if I need additional assistance?

Public Act 98-1089 sets forth the criteria out-of-state retailers must
satisfy in order to be presumed to be maintaining a place of business
in Illinois, requiring them to register and to collect and remit Use Tax
on all of its sales to Illinois customers. Out-of-state retailers may
rebut this presumption if the persons, organizations and corporations
with whom they have agreements are able to certify under penalty
of perjury that they have not engaged in any prohibited solicitation
activities in Illinois during the previous year (i.e., they complete Form
ST-586). Out-of-state retailers must maintain this certification in their
books and records.

If you need assistance,
•	 	 visit our website at tax.illinois.gov, and review Informational
Bulletin FY2015-07, Important Notice of Changes for Out-ofState Retailers,
•	 	 call our Taxpayer Assistance Division at 1 800 732-8866 or
217 782-3336, or
•	 	 call our TDD (telecommunications device for the deaf) at
1 800 544-5304.
Our office hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

The person or persons operating under the agreement in Illinois shall
certify to out-of-state retailers by January 1 of each year, under penalty
of perjury, that they have not engaged in any prohibited solicitation
activities in Illinois at any time during the previous year. If the person
in Illinois with whom an out-of-state retailer has an agreement is an
organization or corporation, the annual certification shall also include
a statement from the organization or corporation, signed by an officer
of the organization or corporation, certifying that its website includes
information directed at its members (in the case of a corporation – its
officers, employees or independent contractors) alerting them to the
prohibition against the solicitation activities.
