1. In administering the provisions of this chapter, the Department shall not hold a marketplace facilitator liable for the payment of any tax imposed by this chapter which is attributable to a retail sale made or facilitated on behalf of a marketplace seller who is not an affiliate of the marketplace facilitator if:
(a) The marketplace facilitator provides proof satisfactory to the Department that the marketplace facilitator has made a reasonable effort to obtain accurate information from the marketplace seller about the retail sale; and
(b) The failure to collect and remit the correct tax on the retail sale was due to incorrect information provided to the marketplace facilitator by the marketplace seller.

Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, in administering the provisions of this chapter, the Department shall not hold a marketplace facilitator liable for the payment of any tax imposed by this chapter which is attributable to a retail sale made or facilitated on behalf of a marketplace seller who is not an affiliate of the marketplace facilitator if the marketplace facilitator provides proof satisfactory to the Department that:
(a) The retail sale was made before January 1, 2021;
(b) The retail sale was made through a marketplace of the marketplace facilitator; and
(c) The failure to collect the sales tax or use tax was due to an error other than an error in sourcing the retail sale.
3. The relief from liability provided pursuant to subsection 2 for the 2019 and 2020 calendar year, respectively, shall not exceed 5 percent of the total sales and use tax owed for the calendar year on the cumulative gross receipts of the marketplace facilitator from retail sales made or facilitated by the marketplace facilitator for one or more marketplace sellers to customers in this State.
4. If a marketplace facilitator is relieved of liability for the collection and remittance of any amount of the sales tax or use tax pursuant to subsection 1, the marketplace seller or purchaser, as applicable, is liable for the payment of such uncollected, unpaid or unremitted tax.
