Avalara Tax Solution & Why My Small Business Needs It
The June 2018 Supreme Court ruling in South Dakota v Wayfair, Inc. changed how sales tax is collected and paid. This ruling overturned the previous physical presence rule that said a business paid sales tax to jurisdictions where they had a physical presence. Following this ruling, states are now able to require businesses with a remote presence to collect and remit sales tax.
This changed the game for many retailers and service providers. In this current environment, most states have written new laws that define sales tax obligations. And if your retail or service business sells to customers located in, or has clients located in, multiple states, then your tax liability just got more complicated. There is no one set of rules governing these processes; every state that wrote new laws wrote something a little (or a lot) different from all the others.
