Georgia Sales Tax Economic Nexus Threshold (2026)
If your Thresholds business sells $100,000 or 200 transactions into Georgia in a calendar year, you have economic nexus and must register, collect, and remit Georgia sales tax.
Georgia's economic nexus threshold, in detail
The current Georgia threshold is $100,000 or 200 transactions, in effect since 2020-01-01.
What counts toward the threshold: gross sales of tangible personal property AND most services delivered to Georgia customers. Resale sales may count in some states. Marketplace-facilitated sales typically do NOT count. Check the state's specific definitions before computing.
Counting periods
Most states apply the threshold on a rolling 12-month basis — look at the prior 12 months as of the end of each month. Some states look at the prior calendar year specifically. Georgia's rule is stated in its regulations; your registration must begin no later than the first day of the month after you cross, unless the state allows a grace period.
Common threshold-tracking mistakes
- Measuring by calendar year only, missing when a rolling 12-month window would have triggered earlier.
- Including tax in “gross sales”. The threshold uses pre-tax revenue; double-counting tax in the threshold figure can prematurely trigger registration.
- Forgetting that the threshold resets — falling below in a subsequent year doesn't automatically deregister you. You must request deregistration through the Georgia DOR.
Georgia nexus note
Economic nexus triggers at more than $100,000 in gross revenue from Georgia retail sales OR 200 or more separate retail sales in the previous or current calendar year. Remote sellers must collect state and applicable local sales tax.
