Frequently Asked Questions

What is a sales tax “nexus”?

The term “nexus” is used to indicate that the connection between a taxpayer and the taxing state is sufficient to trigger state tax obligations. Nexus can be created through physical presence as well as economic connections. The amount of activity or connection that is necessary to create nexus tends to vary among the states and can differ for sales tax and income tax.

Do I have to collect sales tax in another state?

Maybe, if your business has employees, inventory, or makes sales in another state.

With a SALT nexus study from Aprio, you can figure out exactly where you’re required to collect and remit sales tax. Contact us today to learn more.

How do I know if my online sales create nexus?

Many states have economic nexus rules based on sales volume or revenue. If you meet those thresholds, your online sales may create tax obligations.

Can having just one employee in another state trigger sales tax?

Yes. Even a single employee can create nexus, which means you may need to register and collect sales tax in that state.

What happens if I ignore sales tax obligations in other states?

If a nexus exists and you failed to comply, you could face significant back taxes, penalties, and interest. But don’t worry— Aprio can help you quickly identify and address any past exposures (and maintain compliance for the future). Contact us today to learn more.
