Vermont Amazon Sales Tax
Vermont has enforced its marketplace facilitator law since June 2019, so Amazon collects Vermont sales tax on every order. The base rate is 6%, with a 1% local option tax in some municipalities.
Overview
Vermont's marketplace facilitator law took effect June 1, 2019. The state base rate is 6%, and certain municipalities add a 1% local option sales tax, bringing the maximum combined rate to 7%. Amazon collects and remits Vermont sales tax on every order shipped to a Vermont address.
Most of Vermont is taxed at the flat 6% base, with only select towns levying the additional 1% local option tax, so the combined rate is either 6% or 7% depending on the destination. Vermont's economic nexus standard for remote and marketplace sellers is $100,000 in sales OR 200 or more transactions during the preceding 12-month period.
For FBA sellers, Amazon automatically collects and remits on Vermont marketplace orders, so an Amazon-only seller generally has no separate Vermont registration obligation. Sellers with their own website or other non-marketplace sales should track those separately. Consult a tax professional for edge cases such as product-specific taxability.
What FBA sellers still need to know
No registration is required for ongoing Amazon-only sales. Direct or non-Amazon sellers exceeding $100,000 in sales OR 200 or more transactions into Vermont during the prior 12-month period must register and remit.
