Topic summary
Topic: How to charge and remit sales tax on digital products when selling online (Shopify).
Key points:
- Process depends on your location (country/state). You should confirm rules with your local or state tax authority, especially for how and when to remit (i.e., pay) collected taxes.
- Shopify can calculate and charge the appropriate sales tax at checkout and provides reports showing taxes collected over selected periods.
- For guidance, use Shopify’s tax documentation. The correct US-specific resources were provided after the initial link confusion and include further US links at the bottom of the page.
What’s answered:
- Calculation/collection: Shopify’s tax system assists with charging the correct amount.
- Tracking: Use Shopify reporting to see taxes collected.
- Direction to authoritative guidance: Check US-specific Shopify tax docs and your state tax authority for remittance requirements and frequency.
What remains open:
- Exact steps for setting up tax per state and remittance procedures/timelines are not detailed in-thread and vary by jurisdiction.
Status: Partially resolved with links to US-specific documentation; no unified step-by-step process provided.
