Oklahoma Rules on Sales Tax Nexus for Remote Sellers Storing Inventory in Third-Party Warehouses

• The Oklahoma Tax Commission ruled on whether an out-of-state online retailer storing inventory in an Oklahoma warehouse (operated by a marketplace facilitator) creates sales tax nexus.
• The retailer has no physical presence or employees in Oklahoma, and its direct sales to Oklahoma consumers are below the $100,000 economic nexus threshold.
• The marketplace facilitator collects and remits sales tax for marketplace sales, and the retailer does not control where its inventory is stored.
• The key question was whether inventory stored in Oklahoma by a third-party marketplace facilitator creates a substantial nexus and sales tax filing obligation for the retailer.
