Ensure Compliance with Sales and Use Tax Laws
With over 10,000 jurisdictions across the United States, the landscape of sales and use taxes can be a dizzying patchwork of varying rates and exemptions. This complexity often causes businesses, particularly those that sell goods out-of-state, to pay incorrect sales tax amounts. Following the Supreme Court’s pivotal decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair (2018)—which held that states may require retailers to collect sales tax for online purchases, even if the retailer lacks any physical presence in the state—it is particularly important for businesses to review their transactions and determine whether they may be underpaying or overpaying sales tax.
