Tax obligations for an Online Travel Agency in the United States

Hi, we are starting a new travel agency. The home state of the Business is in the state of Nevada. We have also registered as out of state corporations in the state of California, Florida, Hawaii, Washington and IOWA as these states would need us to have a seller of travel license in order to enable customers from these places to book hotel accommodations on our website. However, we do not have any physical office in any state other than Nevada. I would like help to comply with the tax requirements that my company may have in the United States or will i have tax liability only in the state of Nevada.

Answer:

Hi Sirish-

Generally states do not tax non-resident business revenues unless your sales values exceed a certain amount or your transaction value exceeds a certain amount. Each state will vary in their filing requirements. If you would like to do some consulting with me on this, let me know and I can advise you on next steps! Thanks, Jackie
