An expanding nexus footprint can lead to your requirement to collect and remit sales tax in additional state and local jurisdictions. Every state that has a sales tax requires a sales tax registration number. This is done through the Department of Revenue. Some local jurisdictions require a sales tax registration number as well.
Finding the correct jurisdictional form, completing the form accurately, processing a check for the payment of the jurisdictional-imposed fee, and following up with the jurisdiction to ensure they received the application can be a time consuming process. Registering for the wrong tax type – sales tax, seller’s use tax, or consumer’s use tax – can cause you to file the incorrect returns resulting in additional penalties as well.
