How does BlackSpace handle state sales tax?
Over the last few years, many U.S. states have implemented laws that require online marketplaces like BlackSpace to collect sales tax on certain purchases. These marketplace facilitator laws mean that these states require us to calculate and collect sales tax on behalf of our independent sellers and send it to the respective state, oftentimes no matter where the seller is located.
It’s also good to know that tax applies based on the type of item and how it’s categorized. Depending on your state, some types of items are taxed and others are not. If you think something is wrong, send us a message by clicking Still Stuck?… below.
Keep in mind that these laws evolve quickly and we do our best to work with our tax partners to keep on top of them. If you want to learn more, check out this article on Marketplace Facilitator Laws Explained.
