Remote sellers must register to collect and remit tax in New Jersey when, in the previous or current calendar year, they do one of the following:

• Exceed a sales threshold of 100,000 USD
• Meet or exceed volume threshold of 200 transactions

The thresholds include sales of tangible personal property, specified digital products, and taxable services. It includes wholesale sales (sales for resale) and marketplace sales. The thresholds exclude sales of nontaxable services.

Remote sellers that make only nontaxable retail sales or wholesale sales into the state aren’t required to register in New Jersey. Remote sellers that exceed the economic threshold but sell solely through one or more marketplaces must register, but can request to be placed on a non-reporting basis for sales tax by completing Form C-6205-ST.
