What is sales tax registration?
Sales tax is a tax on goods or services sold. You generally need to collect sales tax from customers in states where your business has a **nexus**, meaning a significant presence. Because sales tax rules vary by state, your obligation to collect sales tax can depend on where and how your business operates.
Sales tax registration is the process of obtaining a permit from a state or local tax authority, allowing a business to collect and remit sales tax on taxable goods or services.
In other words, whether you need to register for sales tax depends on whether you need to collect sales tax, and that is often based on nexus and the rules in the relevant state.
