shipped to the stores from our Texas warehouse at the rate imposed by the state the store is in?
shipped to the stores from our Texas warehouse at the rate imposed by the state the store is in?
If so, do we also pay sales tax to Texas because the items were shipped here first?
I know sales/use tax laws vary greatly from state to state. I was told yesterday however, that we have to pay Texas tax on operating supplies in our warehouse that are not for use in Texas but are shipped to our stores.
My company has been paying sales/use tax to both jurisdictions for a long time… This doesn’t seem right..??!! Any and all info welcome.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
The vendor is charging sales tax. We’re paying it at Texas rate and we are accruing it when we ship to nexus.
So, should we be paying Texas sales tax?
