Check Delaware nexus with your numbers

If you sell into Delaware and other states, run the sales tax nexus calculator with your revenue and transaction count before you register. The calculator can compare every state where you sell, while this guide explains why Delaware does not publish a general sales-tax economic nexus threshold.

How Delaware nexus works

Delaware has no state or local sales tax. Sellers do not need to register, collect, or remit sales tax on transactions delivered to Delaware customers. However, Delaware does impose a gross receipts tax on in-state business activity.

Filing frequency

Filing frequency in Delaware depends on your sales tax liability. Higher-volume sellers file monthly; lower-volume sellers typically file quarterly or annually. The state will assign a frequency when you register.

Marketplace facilitator law

Delaware has no general statewide sales tax, so there is no general sales-tax marketplace facilitator collection threshold for marketplaces to apply. Check the official source for separate taxes on meals, lodging, rentals, communications, tobacco, or other industry-specific activity.

Frequently asked questions

Does Delaware have sales tax?

Does Delaware have an economic nexus threshold for sales tax?

Remote sellers should still check whether separate state-administered taxes apply to their specific activity. Source data last retrieved 2026-04-27.
Do marketplaces collect Delaware sales tax?
For general retail sales, there is no Delaware statewide sales tax for marketplaces to collect, so the usual marketplace-facilitator collection threshold does not apply.

Delaware's base state rate is 0.00%. Always check the exact rate at the customer's delivery address before charging.
