Important Sales and Use Tax Information for Customers in Certain States
At Fat Fender Garage, we are committed to transparency and compliance with state tax laws. While we may not be required to collect sales tax in your state, please be aware that you may still owe use tax on your purchases.
Several states require us to notify customers of their obligation to self-report and remit use tax on taxable purchases when sales tax is not collected at checkout. These states may also require us to:
- Notify you of your use tax obligations;
- Provide you with a year-end purchase summary; and/or
- Report certain purchase information to your state’s tax authority.
If you reside in a state with such requirements (e.g., Colorado, Louisiana, Vermont, South Dakota, and others), please review your use tax responsibilities carefully. For more information, consult your state’s department of revenue or a qualified tax advisor.
Notice to Customers: Use Tax May Apply
Sales tax was not collected on this transaction. Depending on your state of residence, you may be required by law to report and pay use tax on this purchase directly to your state tax authority.
States such as Colorado, Louisiana, Vermont, South Dakota, and others have enacted laws that may require us to:
- Notify you of your use tax obligations;
- Provide you with an annual purchase summary;
- Report your purchase information to your state’s tax department.
To avoid penalties or interest, please consult your state’s tax website or a tax professional to determine your obligations.
