How do I access and interpret my Sales Tax Report?
The Seller Sales Tax Report helps you understand your tax burden in different states for a given time range. You can find your report by logging into your Seller Portal and clicking on the Reports tab.
From the Reports page, select the Seller Sales Tax Report, then select the Start and End dates you want the report to reference.
After selecting the dates, click the Download Report button to download it as a XLSX file. Open the report using Microsoft Excel or your preferred spreadsheet application.
