Tax Base: Destination-Based

Destination-based taxation means sales tax is calculated based on the buyer's location. You'll charge the sales tax rate applicable to the customer's shipping address within Indiana.

Filing Frequency

Filing frequency in Indiana typically depends on your sales volume:

  • Monthly: High-volume sellers (typically $10,000+ in monthly tax)
  • Quarterly: Medium-volume sellers (most online sellers)
  • Annual: Low-volume sellers (less than $1,000 in annual tax)

The state revenue department will assign your filing frequency when you register for a sales tax permit.
