What is the sales tax registration and nexus threshold in Nevada?
Nevada economic nexus is triggered when your gross revenue from sales into the state exceeds $100,000 or 200 separate transactions in the current or prior calendar year. Either threshold creates an obligation. Physical presence creates nexus immediately.
What is the marketplace facilitator law in Nevada?
Nevada requires a marketplace facilitator to collect and remit sales and use tax on retail sales it makes or facilitates once its cumulative gross receipts from Nevada customers exceed $100,000, or it makes or facilitates 200 or more separate transactions, in the current calendar year or the immediately preceding one, under NRS 372.751 (enacted via AB 445). A facilitator can shift collection responsibility back to the marketplace seller only through a written agreement, and only once that seller is registered with the Department of Taxation. Limited liability relief protects a facilitator from tax attributable to a non-affiliated seller's facilitated sale when the seller supplied inaccurate information despite the facilitator's reasonable efforts to obtain accurate data.[8]
