Indirect taxes are levied on the sale of goods and services rather than on income or profits. In the United States, indirect taxation mainly refers to sales and use tax, which is imposed by individual states rather than the federal government. Each state sets its own rules, tax rates, definitions of taxable goods and services, and registration requirements, making compliance complex for businesses operating in multiple jurisdictions.
For companies selling products or services across different states, indirect tax obligations can arise from nexus, which is a connection to a state. Nexus may result from having a warehouse, a sales force, or exceeding a revenue threshold. Without proper planning and management, multi-state operations can face under-registration, over-collection, audits, and potential penalties. Indirect tax planning and advisory services are therefore essential for maintaining compliance, optimizing cash flow, and minimizing exposure.

Sales tax is collected by a seller at the point of sale and remitted to the state. Use tax applies when a product is purchased outside a state or online without sales tax collection. Both taxes ensure proper state revenue compliance.

Filing frequency varies by state and business type. Many states require monthly, quarterly, or annual filings. Expert advisory ensures deadlines are met, reducing the risk of penalties or late fees.
