State-by-state guide to economic nexus laws
Guide sections
On June 21, 2018, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in favor of the state in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. This ruling allows the state to begin taxing remote sales via their economic nexus laws. Since the ruling, more than 40 states enacted economic nexus laws of their own.
Economic nexus laws by state
as of December 2, 2019
Prior to this ruling, states could only enforce a tax collection obligation on businesses that had a physical presence in the state, such as a brick-and-mortar location or remote employees. While the physical presence standard still exists, nexus laws were expanded to include a sales tax obligation based on a certain level of economic activity within the state, including sales revenue, transaction volume, or a combination of both. Like many sales tax laws, economic nexus criteria vary by state and by the type of tax.
Below we’ll explore which states currently enforce economic nexus laws and some of the variations in each state’s law. For more information or assistance in determining your sales tax registration, collection, and remittance requirements, contact Avalara Professional Services.
Although we hope you’ll find the information helpful, this guide does not offer a substitute for professional legal or tax advice. If you have questions about your tax liability or concerns about compliance, please consult your qualified legal, tax, or accounting professional. This information was compiled in May 2019. Because states constantly update and amend their sales and use tax laws, see each state’s tax authority website for the most up-to-date and comprehensive information.

Stay ahead of changing sales tax legislation
As you can see, economic nexus laws can vary quite a bit from state to state, so it’s important for businesses to understand the laws in full and review sales activity frequently to determine when and where they have a new obligation. As your business grows, ensure you have a partner like Avalara in place to help you scale.
Economic nexus is one of the many ways your business can establish nexus: an obligation to register, collect, and remit sales tax in a jurisdiction. To see other sales tax laws and nexus rules by state, view our sales tax laws by state resource.
If you’ve determined you have a new sales tax obligation due to economic nexus laws, the typical next step is to register your business with the jurisdiction. Avalara Licensing can help with that.
