First, at least in the USA, you will want to learn about Nexus. Requirements to collect sales tax is based on physical nexus and sales volume/number of transactions. This varies from state to state so review each. Search sales tax  Nexus in the US. Check to see if the type of sale is taxable. Some sales are not taxable in some states but are in others. If you determine that you have Nexus, you register with the state in question and then begin filing. Some filings are monthly, some quarterly, and some annual. Usually depends on volume.

Setting up the tax is done through settings/taxes. It isn't really clear so contacting Shopify support would be wise. Waiting for someone in the forums to help you will be frustrating. Shopify support does come by once in a while though with help.
