Frequently Asked Questions
If you can't find the question you are looking for, please contact us.
What is sales tax nexus?
Sales tax nexus is a connection between a business and a state that requires the business to collect and remit sales tax. This can be triggered by physical presence, economic activity (sales volume), or other factors depending on the state.
How do I know if I need to collect sales tax in a state?
You generally need to collect sales tax if you have nexus in a state. This can be triggered by having a physical presence, meeting economic thresholds (typically a certain amount of sales and/or number of transactions), or other state-specific criteria.
What happens if I don't collect sales tax when required?
Failing to collect and remit required sales tax can result in penalties, interest charges, and back taxes. It's important to stay compliant to avoid these costly consequences.
How often do I need to file sales tax returns?
Filing frequency varies by state and can be monthly, quarterly, or annually, often based on your sales volume. We help manage these varying deadlines across all jurisdictions.
Can you help with historical sales tax compliance?
Yes, we can assist with historical compliance issues, including voluntary disclosure agreements and back filing returns when necessary.
Do I need to collect sales tax for online sales?
Following the Supreme Court's Wayfair decision, most states require online sellers to collect sales tax if they meet certain economic thresholds, even without physical presence.
How do you handle multi-state sales tax compliance?
We manage the entire process across all states where you have obligations, including registration, return preparation, filing, and payment remittance.
What information do I need to provide for sales tax filings?
Typically, you'll need to provide sales data by state/jurisdiction, exemption certificates if applicable, and information about taxable vs. non-taxable sales.
What is economic nexus, and how does it impact my business?
Economic nexus is triggered by reaching a specific sales threshold in a state, typically a certain amount of sales and/or number of transactions. If you meet these criteria, you’re required to collect and remit sales tax in that state.
How long does the sales tax registration process take?
The timeline varies by state, but generally, it takes 1-4 weeks. Some states have faster online processes, while others require manual steps that may take longer.
Do I need to register for sales tax in every state where I sell products?
Not necessarily. You only need to register in states where you have sales tax nexus, which could be based on physical presence or economic activity thresholds.
Can I register for sales tax myself, or do I need assistance?
You can definitely register yourself although many clients find it complex due to varying state requirements. We handle the registration process to ensure accuracy and compliance across states.
What is a resale certificate, and how does it affect sales tax?
A resale certificate allows businesses to purchase items tax-free for resale. We assist in obtaining and managing these certificates to ensure compliance and reduce tax liabilities.
Are there penalties for late sales tax filings?
Yes, most states impose penalties and interest on late filings. We ensure timely filings to help avoid these extra costs and maintain compliance.
What if my business only occasionally sells in certain states?
If sales are infrequent and don’t meet nexus thresholds, you may not need to register in those states. We analyze your activity to determine where registration is required.
How do exemption certificates work in sales tax compliance?
Exemption certificates allow certain customers to avoid sales tax, such as nonprofits or resellers. We help you manage these certificates to ensure compliant transactions.
Can you help if I’m just starting and don’t know where to register?
Absolutely. We analyze your business activities and advise on where sales tax registration is necessary, helping you set up compliance from the start.
