Georgia Senate approves flat-fee tax for ride-share trips

Published March 5, 2020 11:00pm ET



The Georgia Senate push forward a bill Wednesday that would add a flat-fee tax for ride-sharing trips instead of sales tax.

Language added to House Bill 105 would require riders to pay 50 cents a ride-share trip or 25 cents a pool ride in place of an 8.9 percent sales tax. The bill’s original language would exempt disaster relief aid from being subject to income tax.
