US taxes

Note

This guide is for stores who sell in the United States. It's your responsibility to consult with local tax authorities or a tax professional to verify that you charge your customers the correct tax rates, and to ensure you file and remit your taxes correctly.

Shopify helps to automate charging sales taxes. Shopify doesn't remit or file your taxes for you, unless you use Shopify Tax and set up automated filing. You can follow this guide to determine where in the United States you might be responsible for charging taxes. After you know where you're liable for tax, you can configure your store to charge taxes accordingly.

If you need information about 1099-K forms and you use Shopify Payments, then refer to Tax reporting.
