Ensure Accurate Sales Tax Compliance Across Every Major E-Commerce Platform
As an e-commerce business or a growing brand, expanding across multiple marketplaces is the key to scaling. However, the introduction of Marketplace Facilitator Laws across various states and countries has made sales tax compliance incredibly complex.
While platforms like Amazon, Walmart, and eBay are supposed to collect and remit sales tax on your behalf, the reality is that discrepancies, double-taxation, and missed registrations still happen.
At OBG Outsourcing Private Limited, we provide meticulous Marketplace Facilitator Review Services to audit your multichannel sales, reconcile your tax data, and protect your business from costly compliance audits.
Why Do You Need a Marketplace Facilitator Review?
Many sellers mistakenly believe that because they sell on a marketplace, they have zero sales tax liability. In reality, you are still responsible for:
Tracking Economic Nexus: Wholesale, direct-to-consumer (DTC) website sales, and marketplace sales all count toward your nexus thresholds in many states.
Preventing Double Taxation: Ensuring your independent e-commerce store (e.g., Shopify) isn't accidentally remitting tax on orders already handled by a marketplace facilitator.
Accurate Reporting: Even if a marketplace collects the tax, you may still be required to file "zero-due" or informational returns in states where you hold a sales tax permit.
Our Marketplace Facilitator Review Process
Our team of seasoned tax professionals and auditors acts as an extension of your finance department. We dive deep into your transactional data to ensure 100% accuracy.
1. Data Aggregation & Reconciliation
We extract and consolidate transaction reports from all your sales channels (Amazon, Walmart, Etsy, Shopify, etc.) and cross-reference them with your accounting software.
2. Facilitator Compliance Audit
We verify that the marketplace facilitator actually collected and remitted the correct amount of tax on your transactions, identifying any under-collections or over-collections.
3. Nexus & Exemption Analysis
We evaluate your rolling 12-month sales to determine exactly where you have established physical or economic nexus, ensuring your marketplace sales are properly categorized as "exempt" or "facilitated" on state returns.
4. Variance Reporting & Clean-Up
If we find discrepancies—such as a state expecting a return that wasn't filed, or taxes being double-counted—we provide a clear remediation plan and handle the adjustment filings for you.
