How Kansas nexus works
Kansas sales tax nexus and economic nexus threshold: remote sellers and marketplace facilitators generally are not required to register, collect, and remit Kansas retailers' compensating use tax until they exceed $100,000 of Kansas sales in the current or preceding calendar year. Kansas uses a sales-only de minimis threshold -- no transaction-count test. KDOR guidance says responsibility begins with the next transaction after the $100,000 threshold is met and remote sellers should register within 30 days after crossing it.
