About this tool
Post-Wayfair, US states can require you to collect sales tax based on economic activity (revenue + transactions), even without physical presence. This estimator flags which states you've likely triggered nexus in based on your sales numbers.
What economic nexus actually means
Pre-2018, you only had to collect sales tax in states where you had a physical presence (warehouse, employee, office). The Supreme Court's South Dakota v. Wayfair ruling changed that: states can now require collection based purely on economic activity. Each state sets its own threshold — usually $100k revenue or 200 transactions, but California and Texas use $500k.
What to do once you trigger nexus
- Register with the state's department of revenue (each state has its own portal)
- Configure your store to collect sales tax in that state going forward
- Set up filing cadence (monthly / quarterly / annual depending on volume)
- Track tax liability separately in your accounting
- Get a sales tax automation tool (TaxJar, Avalara) once you hit 5+ states
Important
This tool is an indicative estimator. Actual nexus depends on where your transactions originate — which the tool can't see from aggregate totals. Always confirm with a CPA before registering or relying on these estimates for compliance decisions.
