State Sales Tax Guides for North America 2019-2020

November 25, 2019 by Wayne Schulz Leave a Comment

Sales tax service provider Avalara has created a comprehensive website showing sales tax rules for each state in the United States. 

You’ll notice some states are omitted, such as Delaware, Montana, Oregon, and New Hampshire. A fifth, Alaska, has no state-level sales tax but allows municipalities to impose the retail-level tax.

Sales Tax Quick Reference

There is also a quick reference download available for each state charging sales tax. This guide would be handy for distributing to accounting staff for a quick overview of filing dates and requirements.

Sage 100 Integrated Sales Tax

Users of Sage 100 and Sage 100cloud also have the option of incorporating sales tax processing directly into their Sage 100 system. The Avalara integration replaces the manually created sales tax codes and will compute and file sales tax returns to most states on your behalf.

Streamlined Sales Tax ( SST )

If you are making sales in multiple states and aren’t yet registered – here’s an additional option Avalara offers called Streamlined Sales Tax ( info below via their website ) .

Created in 1999, the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement is the result of a cooperative effort between state and local governments and the business community. The goal of SST is to simplify sales and use tax collection and administration for all sellers and all types of commerce by making sales tax administration requirements less burdensome. Participating states must simplify and centralize aspects of sales tax administration. For some companies, SST offers critical tools to help address ever-changing sales tax regulations. For others, the benefits of SST are less obvious.

The active members of SST are: Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania,* Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Understanding The “Use” In “Sales and Use Tax” – Avalara Webinar Tuesday May 14, 2013

April 23, 2013 by Wayne Schulz

Unless you live in one of five states that don’t collect sales tax (for now), chances are sales tax is something you deal with regularly as a consumer. And while there are many intricacies businesses face when collecting sales tax (what rate to charge, when & where to file, etc.), most of us understand the concept in general.

Unlike sales tax, very few of us understand use tax regulations, let alone comply with them. Put simply, use tax (aka consumer use tax) is a sales tax that is collected and remitted by the buyer rather than the seller.

It is estimated that in the 45 states that have sales tax, and therefore also have use tax, only 1.6% of taxpayers actually pay it. While state governments don’t have the bandwidth to hunt down every penny individual consumers didn’t pay on tax-free (but not tax-exempt) online purchases, auditors are not shy about digging into purchase records to find use tax violations when auditing businesses.

There are a variety of scenarios that create use tax liability, and each of these situations, if not handled properly, can expose your organization to audit risk. Attend this webinar to learn how you can reduce your exposure by accurately self-assessing use tax.
