U.S. sales tax is a tax imposed by state and local governments on the sale of goods and services. This tax is typically paid by the final customer.
As an online seller using print-on-demand, you may be responsible for charging this sales tax on the products you sell to your customers.
Sales tax collection is often handled by your sales channel:
Some marketplaces, like Etsy and Amazon, can automatically calculate, collect, and pay the sales tax on your behalf.
For storefront platforms like Shopify, you can manage tax collection and payment using the platform's built-in tax tools or approved third-party services.
It is important for order fulfillment that you understand and set up the correct tax rules for your business location and your customers' locations.
