Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Stacey and Meredith explore the complex world of state and local taxation, focusing on one of the most misunderstood topics: nexus. Our team of tax professionals unpacks the common myths businesses often hold, especially around physical presence and economic nexus rules.A key misconception we address is the belief that a company’s tax responsibilities stop at its state of incorporation. In reality, doing business and making sales across multiple states can create tax obligations in each of those jurisdictions. Key Takeaways:State and local tax compliance goes far beyond a company’s headquarters.Many businesses mistakenly assume that only physical presence determines their tax obligations.Because tax laws differ widely from state to state, compliance must be tailored to each jurisdiction.Nexus can be triggered in overlooked ways, including remote sales and employee activity.Chapters00:00 - Intro03:06 - Nexus and State Tax Jurisdiction13:00 - Tax Compliance in Multi-State Operations16:36 - Drop Shipments and Sales Tax24:45 - Software Limitations in Business Compliance40:20 - Navigating State Tax ComplianceConnectSubscribe on your favorite podcast app here.Follow us on LinkedIn and YouTube.Mentioned in this episode:SALT ContactSALT Contact
