Amazon charges 9% tax while other online retailers charge 6.25% for electronic products, anyone knows why?
Basically, in most cases marketplace sellers (e.g. Amazon) are required to collect sales tax at the delivery location's local rate. That's not the case for out of state sellers who don't use a marketplace. It's quite convoluted. https://www2.illinois.gov/rev/research/taxinformation/sales/Pages/Level-the-Playing-Field.aspx More on reddit.com

June 17, 2022Eli5: Can someone explain to me how does Amazon pay $0 in taxes or is this just a myth?
They don't pay zero tax anymore. They did in 2022 and some prior years, but it's not the case any longer. HOWEVER, when they did (despite bringing in billions in revenue), it was because they were able to carry forward losses from previous years to remove profit from the balance sheet of a future year or years. But last year (2024) they paid nearly $10 billion. In saying this, it's INSANE what loopholes and strategies are available for tax mitigation these days. Not just for big companies, but for like small business owners and normal people. I'm part of a community called Anticitizen which is all about tax mitigation and getting other citizenships and residencies for freedom of movement and all that stuff. It's mind blowing what I've learned in there about the kinds of loopholes that exist for people to legally get around paying tax. It's almost like some of the tax laws are created by design so that people in the know (ie: politicians and their friends) can not pay tax. Personally, if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me. More on reddit.com

Wow, is that even legal? 2.75% is not a lot, but can’t imagine how much they have got from all of us Continue this thread Continue this thread Continue this thread Continue this thread

Online companies that had not previously been subject to the tax are now faced with a decision whether to keep Illinois affiliates and charge its customers the additional 6.25%, or terminate the relationships and avoid paying the tax. Amazon was quick to send a letter to its Illinois affiliates declaring the new law unconstitutional and forcing the termination of all affiliate relationships. Amazon is expected to challenge the constitutionality of the Illinois law, as it did in New York after a similar law was passed in 2008.
