Which state is easier for sellers?

For low-revenue sellers: nexus triggers first in both states because of its threshold. If you cross that first, you register there first.

On rate: rates are identical or the data is incomplete.

Neither state has a transaction-count trigger — only the dollar threshold matters.

Montana — nexus note

Montana has no general state or local sales tax. Sellers shipping to Montana customers do not need to register or collect. Exceptions: certain resort-area local option taxes and accommodations/rental car taxes apply to specific industries.

Oregon — nexus note

Oregon has no state or local general sales tax. Sellers do not need to register or collect sales tax on transactions shipped to Oregon customers. Oregon does impose a Corporate Activity Tax (CAT) on certain businesses with Oregon-source revenue over $1M, but this is not a sales tax.

Frequently asked questions

Do both Montana and Oregon have marketplace facilitator laws?
Neither Montana nor Oregon has a marketplace facilitator law recorded in our current data as of 2026-06-24. Confirm against each state's official source.
Do I need to register for sales tax in both Montana and Oregon?
It depends on where you cross each state's economic nexus threshold (or have physical presence there). Montana's published threshold is not applicable (no statewide sales tax), and Oregon's is not applicable (no statewide sales tax). You generally register in a state only once you cross its threshold, so you may have an obligation in one, both, or neither. Run the nexus calculator with your actual sales and confirm with each state's official source. Thresholds as of 2026-06-24.
