Does BigCommerce collect and remit sales tax?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 1:43 am

When it comes to tax, there are many questions that consumers have, and one of which is whether or not BigCommerce collects and remits sales tax. As of now, the answer to this question is that it appears that BigCommerce does not collect and remit sales tax.

This information was provided by the company in a response to a consumer inquiry. In the response, BigCommerce stated that it does not have the ability to collect or remit sales taxes for consumers.

PRO TIP: Most states in the US require businesses to collect and remit sales tax on the goods and services they sell. BigCommerce does not currently collect or remit sales tax on behalf of our merchants.

This is likely due to the fact that BigCommerce is an ecommerce platform that operates in numerous states across the country.

Thus, it would be difficult for the company to comply with the tax lAWS of each state. Additionally, it is possible that some states do not require ecommerce platforms to collect and remit sales tax.

In any case, it is important for consumers to be aware of this information in order to avoid any potential tax surprises.
