Sales Tax registration Applied - next steps

Registration Status


Congratulations, your sales tax license registration application has been submitted!


"Applied" means the state registration application has been submitted and you will receive the license information in the mail. If you use the Sidr virtual mailbox, we will receive the mail on your behalf and set up your online access automatically. If you don't, please forward us the mail once you receive it, and we will set up your online access and share credentials with you.

Collect Sales Tax


If your Sales Tax ID field is empty in the state details, it means that the state DOR didn't provide that to Sidr Tax right away. Don't worry, you will still get the ID! For some states, you will see it after creating an account, for some other states, you will get it in the mail. It can take 2-4 weeks for the mail to arrive, please be patient and monitor your business mailbox. Once you receive the sales tax ID, you can follow the steps above to collect sales tax.


If you have received your Sales Tax ID, you can now legally start charging tax. Please add this ID to your Shopify tax configuration. Here is an article from Shopify about how to set it up, or follow the steps below.


  1. From the Shopify admin, go to Settings > Taxes and duties.
  2. In the Manage sales tax collection section, click your country or region.
  3. Click Collect sales tax.
  4. In Tax number, enter your tax number. If you have applied for a tax number, but don't have one yet, then leave this field blank. You can update it when you receive your number.
  5. Click Collect tax.
  6. Optional: To add more regions and account numbers, click Collect sales tax.


Sales Tax Autofile


Once we set up your online access, we will also enable Autofile for you, so you never need to worry about sales tax filing again.
