Who collects Wyoming sales tax on dropshipped orders?

You do, as the retailer. Your dropshipper invoices you at wholesale; you invoice the customer at retail. Collection duty follows the retail transaction — that's you.

Will my dropshipper charge me Wyoming sales tax on the wholesale?

Only if your dropshipper has Wyoming nexus AND you can't provide a valid WY resale certificate. Obtain resale certificates for every state where your dropshipper operates.

Does dropshipping trigger economic nexus in Wyoming?

Yes, your retail revenue into Wyoming still counts toward the $100,000 threshold, independent of how fulfillment happens.

Can I use an out-of-state resale certificate for a dropshipper in Wyoming?

Usually yes — most states accept the Streamlined (SST form F0003) or MTC multijurisdiction resale certificate, so your WY dropshipper can take it instead of charging you tax on the wholesale invoice. But California, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, and Massachusetts reject an out-of-state certificate from the true retailer in a drop shipment and effectively require in-state registration (Florida also wants a transaction authorization number). Confirm Wyoming's current rule with its Department of Revenue. Verified 2026-06-27.

If your Dropshipping business sells $100,000 into Wyoming in a calendar year, you have economic nexus and must register, collect, and remit Wyoming sales tax.

Dropshipping sales tax in Wyoming

As of June 2026, a Wyoming drop shipment is a three-party sale: you collect Wyoming sales tax from your customer on the retail price once your sales into the state pass $100,000, while your supplier charges you tax on the wholesale invoice only when it has Wyoming nexus and you can’t give it a valid resale certificate.

Dropshipping into Wyoming raises three distinct tax questions. First, you (the retailer) have to collect and remit Wyoming sales tax on your retail sales if you exceed $100,000. Second, your dropship supplier may charge YOU sales tax on the wholesale invoice if they have Wyoming nexus and you can't present a valid resale certificate. Third, the marketplace (if any) handles its own tax on facilitated transactions.

Wyoming applies 4.00% as the base state rate; local add-ons average 1.56%.

Resale certificates: which document each state accepts

If you hold a Wyoming sales tax permit, you can usually issue your dropshipper a WY resale certificate so it does not charge you sales tax on the wholesale invoice.
No Wyoming permit yet? Two multistate forms cover most states: the Streamlined Sales Tax Certificate of Exemption (SST form F0003), honored by all 24 SST member states, and the MTC Uniform Sales & Use Tax Resale Certificate, accepted by roughly 36 states.
A handful of states reject an out-of-state resale certificate from the true retailer in a drop shipment and effectively require in-state registration or extra paperwork — notably California, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, and Massachusetts. Florida also requires the supplier to obtain a transaction authorization number before honoring an MTC certificate. In those states a home-state certificate alone may not protect your supplier, so confirm the rule with that state’s Department of Revenue.

Common dropshipping mistakes in Wyoming

Treating your dropshipper's nexus as if it obligates them to collect from the end customer — no, they invoice you at wholesale; you invoice the customer at retail. Only the retail transaction is subject to collection duty.
Forgetting that your retail revenue into Wyoming still counts toward the economic nexus threshold, independent of the dropshipping arrangement.
Not keeping resale certificates on file — your supplier will charge you tax (and you'll have already collected from the customer), eroding margin.

Wyoming nexus note

Wyoming sales tax nexus and economic nexus threshold: effective July 1, 2024, an out-of-state seller without Wyoming physical presence must remit Wyoming sales tax once gross revenue from taxable tangible personal property, admissions, or services delivered into Wyoming exceeds $100,000 in the current or immediately preceding calendar year. Wyoming repealed the prior 200-transaction test, so the current remote-seller trigger is sales-only. Marketplace facilitators are treated as vendors for facilitated marketplace sales and must collect and remit Wyoming sales tax on sales they facilitate into Wyoming, subject to the remote-seller limitations in W.S. 39-15-501.
