What is nexus?
In Macon, businesses must understand “nexus” to determine their tax obligations. Nexus refers to the connection that requires a business to collect sales tax in a state. This concept became even more important after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., which allowed states to require sales tax collection based on economic activity rather than just a physical presence.
Specific sales tax rules for Macon
Title Ad Valorem Tax (TAVT) replaces both the annual motor vehicle ad valorem tax and the sales tax traditionally collected by dealers on vehicle purchases. TAVT applies to all vehicles, whether new or used, purchased on or after March 1, 2013. The tax is due whenever a titled vehicle is transferred to a new owner.
The TAVT rate is set at 7% of the vehicle’s fair market value or the selling price, as determined by the Department of Revenue.
