As a remote seller, especially if you’re in the e-commerce or software industries, you’ve likely come across the term “economic nexus” and wondered how it impacts your business. Navigating the complex world of sales tax can be overwhelming, but don’t worry; we’re here to help! In this blog post, we’ll break down the concept of economic nexus, its implications for your business, and the key information you need to understand each state’s sales tax economic nexus threshold.
Economic nexus is a tax law concept that establishes a basis for businesses to collect and remit sales tax, even if they don’t have a physical presence in a specific state. This concept gained prominence in 2018 after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in the South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. case. This landmark ruling determined that states can require remote sellers to collect sales tax if they meet certain sales or transaction thresholds, known as “economic nexus” thresholds. These thresholds vary from state to state and are based on sales volume, revenue, or the number of transactions.
Before the Wayfair ruling, businesses were only required to collect sales tax in states where they had a physical presence, such as an office, warehouse, or employee. However, the rapid growth of e-commerce and the increasing number of online transactions made it necessary for states to find new ways to generate revenue. The Wayfair decision marked a significant shift in sales tax laws, opening the door for states to require remote sellers to collect and remit sales tax based on economic nexus.
If you’re an e-commerce or software company selling to customers outside of your home state, understanding economic nexus is crucial. Since the Wayfair ruling, most states have implemented their own economic nexus laws with varying thresholds. As a remote seller, it’s essential to keep track of these thresholds to ensure compliance with each state’s sales tax requirements.
Failing to comply with economic nexus laws can lead to penalties, interest charges, and audit risks. Moreover, it’s important to note that these laws can be retroactive, meaning that if your business surpasses a state’s economic nexus threshold, you may be responsible for collecting and remitting sales tax from the moment you exceeded that threshold.
To help you stay on top of your sales tax obligations, our upcoming blog post will provide a detailed breakdown of each state’s sales tax economic nexus threshold. By understanding these requirements, you’ll be better equipped to navigate the ever-changing landscape of sales tax laws and maintain compliance, allowing you to focus on growing your business with confidence.
