What is sales tax nexus?

Sales tax nexus is a connection between a business and a state that creates a tax obligation. This connection can be established through physical presence, sales volume, number of transactions, employees, or inventory in a state.

What is a Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA)?

A VDA is a legal agreement negotiated with a state's Department of Revenue that allows businesses to come into compliance with their tax obligations. It typically includes reduced penalties, a limited look-back period, and legal indemnification, providing a win-win solution for both the business and the state.

How long does a nexus evaluation take?

A free nexus risk evaluation takes approximately 30 minutes and will determine if you have a tax obligation in various states.

What factors determine if I have nexus in a state?

Nexus determination considers multiple factors including physical presence in the state, sales volume, number of transactions, employees working in the state, and inventory storage. Each state has different criteria and thresholds.

We were facing a potential $120,000 liability in back taxes, interest, and penalties after crossing nexus thresholds we didn’t know existed. Nexus Accountant stepped in and negotiated VDAs with 15 different states. They got 100% of the penalties waived, saving us over $45,000 in out-of-pocket costs alone. They turned a ‘business-ending’ tax bill into a manageable, interest-free compliance plan.
