Six Questions to Assess your Volunteer Seller Status
This assessment is designed to help you determine whether you qualify for Volunteer Seller Status, which reduces your sales tax risk, burden and costs, in one or more of the 24 Streamlined Sales Tax (SST) states.
Qualifying as a Volunteer Seller allows you to benefit from reduced risk, burden, and cost when you partner with Sovos as your Certified Service Provider (CSP) for sales tax compliance. This partnership enables you to outsource most administrative compliance processes, saving time while maintaining confidence in the accuracy of your sales tax data.
