Automate Tax Calculation and Compliance with Avalara AvaTax

Sales and use tax compliance has become one of the most complex and high-risk operational challenges for modern businesses. As organizations expand into new states, countries, sales channels, and product categories, the burden of managing constantly changing tax rules grows exponentially. What was once a manageable back-office task has now become a critical business risk that directly impacts revenue, compliance, customer experience, and brand reputation.

Every year, tax authorities introduce thousands of new rate changes, taxability updates, and regulatory requirements across the United States and around the world. Economic nexus laws, destination-based sourcing, industry-specific tax rules, and digital commerce regulations have permanently changed how tax obligations are determined. Businesses are now expected to calculate tax accurately at the exact moment of every transaction—across ecommerce, marketplaces, point-of-sale systems, ERP platforms, and global trade operations.

Why tax automation matters now

As your business sells into more states and countries, keeping up with sales and use tax rules becomes harder and riskier. In 2023 alone there were:

11,000+ U.S. sales and use tax rate updates
85,000+ taxability updates across the U.S. and Canada
