Frequently asked questions
Do I need to collect sales tax in other states?
Possibly. If you sell into other states you may have nexus there once you pass that state’s sales threshold. We review where you sell and register you where it is required.
I buy stock for resale. Do I pay sales tax on it?
Generally no, if you give your supplier a valid resale certificate. Items you use in the business, such as equipment, may owe New Jersey use tax if the seller did not charge sales tax.
