Why Does Nexus Matter?

If you sell in multiple states, even remotely, it's critical to know your sales tax nexus footprint to register, collect, and remit sales taxes appropriately. Nexus laws vary from state to state, and the rules have been ever-evolving since the South Dakota vs. Wayfair decision in 2018, which asserted that having a physical presence in a state was no longer the only qualifier for collecting sales tax.
Ignoring nexus can lead to high audit risk, and non-compliance can carry significant fees and penalties, while navigating nexus can be difficult and time-consuming to manage on your own, especially using manual tools like spreadsheets and tax tables.
LumaTax can help. With our automated data analysis and expert review, we'll help you understand your physical and economic nexus exposure and get your sales tax compliance on track.

At Risk Industries

Several key industries are more exposed to sales tax risk than others, and identifying where your company lies on that at-risk scale is essential to better understand that exposure.

Merchandisers

Companies that sell tangible goods are in the eye of the storm under the South Dakota v. Wayfair decision. With the advent of omnichannel distribution models, marketplace facilitators, and remote sales, these companies are at the highest risk for exposure.

Manufacturers

The manufacturing sector will often have both wholesale and retail distribution which adds a layer of complexity to determining exposure. Wholesale distribution requires an additional layer of compliance documentation to protect the business.

Software-as-a-Service

In many U.S. jurisdictions, software subscriptions and cloud applications are subject to tax, creating hurdles for technology companies. States are rapidly adapting their laws to tax these segments.

Digital Goods & Services

The digital economy is becoming increasingly challenging for companies as state taxing authorities often apply archaic laws to modern business models, leaving uncertainty in the Interpretation of taxability.

Registration
