- Economic nexus is a tax obligation for out-of-state sellers based on sales revenue or transaction volume, not just physical presence.
- The 2018 Supreme Court decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. allowed states to require remote sellers to collect and remit sales tax if certain thresholds are met.
- Each state sets its own economic nexus thresholds, typically based on sales revenue (e.g., $100,000 or $250,000) or number of transactions (e.g., 200).
- The rules and definitions for what counts toward these thresholds vary by state, including the look-back period and types of sales included.
- Businesses selling across state lines must monitor and comply with varying state sales tax laws to manage financial risk.
