Who has to collect it?

Delaware has no state sales tax, so there is no state remote-seller threshold.

What to do, step by step

1. Check what applies to your business

There is no state sales tax to register for, but other taxes and licenses can apply. Ask the Delaware Division of Revenue what your business needs.

2. Selling to customers in other states

Customers in other states are covered by their own state's rules. Once you pass a state's remote-seller threshold, that state may require you to register and collect its sales tax.

3. Keep good records

Keep your invoices and sales records. They support your income tax return and any other filing.
