## When to register for tax collection

In New Jersey, Stripe Tax supports calculation and collection of sales tax (including seller use tax) and additional tax types.

See [Needs attention](https://dashboard.stripe.com/tax/locations?primary_tab=needs_attention) tab to get insights about your potential tax registration obligations in New Jersey. Stripe also notifies you with email and Dashboard alerts when you need to register to collect tax. Learn more about how the [monitoring tool works](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/monitoring.md).

### Sales tax

Remote sellers must register to collect and remit sales 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](https://www.nj.gov/treasury/taxation/prntsale.shtml).

If your **head office** in the [tax settings page](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/tax) of the Dashboard is in New Jersey, you’re not a remote seller and you must register due to your physical presence in the state.

### Other taxes

We also support calculation and collection of admissions, luxury, and tourism taxes in many [New Jersey local jurisdictions](https://docs.stripe.com/tax/registering.md?registrationTypeRegion=united-states&state=NJ#registration-types). These taxes apply to participant and spectator based entertainment or recreational activities. Stripe doesn’t include transactions for this tax in its threshold monitoring.
