Hi zusammen,
wir haben uns jetzt mit einem Dienstleister beschäftigt, der uns für das Steuerhandling folgende Infos und Preise gegeben hat:
I have included some key information on tax compliance and what your requirements are when it comes to registration and filing in the US. To initiate the process, an Employer Identification Number (EIN) must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service. At the beginning of next year, your seller platform will issue a 1099K Sales Report form to the IRS which will reflect your total annual sales within the US. Therefore, you will be subject to an income tax treaty declaration for protective income tax preparation and filing services. This means you do not pay taxes in the US, but you still have to file an informative return to the IRS once a year.
Secondly, you will need to apply for Sales Tax ID numbers in the states where your business is registered and/or where Amazon/eBay/Walmart/Etsy and other retailers are not acting in a marketplace facilitator capacity; or where your inventory is stored at a 3PL.
For Amazon Seller Account
Most states have an economic threshold which means you only need to register once you meet that transaction amount or dollar amount in sales. 49 of those states have appointed Amazon as a marketplace facilitator, therefore you do not need to register since the sales tax requirements will be on Amazon’s responsibility.
Physical Nexus for Amazon:
Currently there are 36 states that fall under the Amazon FBA Warehouse programme, which continues to grow each year. Because of this it is impossible to know where your inventory is going to be stored as Amazon have discretion over where your inventory is stored, similarly to the Pan-EU programme in Europe. In most of those states Amazon acts as the market facilitator so there is no need to register for Sales Tax. However, there are currently 9 states, (California, Colorado, Connecticut, Tennessee, Washington, New York, Nevada, North Carolina & South Carolina) which requires you to register and file for Sales Tax due to economic and physical nexus. In the other 41 states where Amazon collect and remit the sales tax you can freely sell without any further compliances.
Economic Nexus for Amazon:
Lastly, there is a cross-economic sales and transaction threshold to be aware of in states that collect sales tax – most commonly this is $100k or 200 transactions, however this does vary. Once you pass this threshold you will be required to register for sales tax if the state is not included in the Amazon FBA programme. Here at XXX-Company your CPA will monitor these thresholds throughout the year and advise when you are approaching the threshold so that we can register for sales tax.
