Amazon has two tax collection methods:

  1. Merchant collected tax which you set up in your tax settings to collect sales tax for the state you operate in (we've done this for you already).  To view your tax settings click on Settings > Tax settings in your Seller Central account.
  2. Marketplace Tax Collection (MTC) applies to orders that are being shipped to states where marketplace facilitator laws are enacted (click the link below for an updated date list of states). If you live in a state with marketplace facilitator laws, then you won't need to remit any taxes because Amazon remits them on your behalf. Taxes collected by MTC will not be in your deposit.
