Interstate is a term used to refer to a movement or transaction that occurs between two or more states, or between a state and a foreign country. Intrastate is used to refer to a movement or transaction that occurs within a single state.
Interstate commerce is regulated at the federal level, while intrastate commerce is regulated at the state level. Interstate commerce includes any form of trade, transportation, communication, or travel that crosses state lines. Intrastate commerce, on the other hand, is trade or travel that occurs entirely within the boundaries of a single state. Examples of interstate commerce include the sale of goods across state lines, the import or export of goods or services, or the transportation of passengers or freight across state lines. Examples of intrastate commerce include the sale of goods within a single state, the transportation of passengers or freight within a single state, or the purchase of goods or services within a single state.
