It is a special term for tax purposes. It means that your company is connected to the specific US state in spite company having neither office nor goods stored in this state. Economic nexus may occur when a company sells over the year threshold to this specific state. If a company has an economic nexus it needs to register for sales tax in the state.

Meet our customers
We liked that all of our transactions from different regions and sales channels are uploaded to one place and safely stored there. Whenever needed - we can check all the information about those, which helped when we had questions from tax authorities regarding our sales. The feature of auto-submission for Sales Tax is also brilliant and saved much time for us as we sell in various states.
