The problem

Post-Wayfair, sales tax obligations appear in states you have never set foot in.

Nexus appears without warning.

$100k in California or 200 orders in New York and you have new obligations. Most founders never see it coming.

Marketplace data triggers audits.

Amazon and Shopify share data with states. Audits now arrive from sales activity, not just physical presence.

Filings stack up across states.

Different rates, different forms, different deadlines. Monthly in some states, quarterly in others.

How it works

Analyze, register, file, monitor. End to end.

FAQ

Sales tax compliance, answered.

What is economic nexus for online sellers?

Economic nexus is a state's authority to require sales tax collection based on sales volume, not physical presence. After the 2018 South Dakota v. Wayfair Supreme Court decision, most states set thresholds around $100,000 in sales or 200 transactions per year. Cross the threshold, register, and start collecting.

Does Amazon collect sales tax for me?

Amazon collects and remits sales tax on marketplace-facilitated sales in most states under Marketplace Facilitator laws. You may still owe tax on fulfilled-by-merchant (FBM) sales, or if FBA inventory creates physical nexus that triggers obligations beyond marketplace sales.

How do I know which states I owe sales tax in?

You need a nexus analysis: a state-by-state review of your sales data against current thresholds. Reconsail runs this analysis for every client and delivers a prioritized list of states requiring immediate registration, plus a watchlist for states you are approaching.

What happens if I ignore sales tax obligations?

States can assess back taxes, penalties, and interest dating to when you first established nexus, often years of liability. Audits triggered by marketplace data from Amazon and Shopify are increasingly common, and the unrecorded tax compounds every month you wait.

What is a voluntary disclosure agreement?

A voluntary disclosure agreement (VDA) is a state program where you proactively disclose past sales tax obligations in exchange for a shorter look-back period and waived penalties. If you have been out of compliance, a VDA can materially reduce your liability, and Reconsail can guide the process.
