Does Squarespace calculate sales tax?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 10:45 pm

When creating a new account on Squarespace, you are prompted to enter your state’s sales tax information. However, is Squarespace actually calculating and charging sales tax on your behalf?

According to Squarespace’s website, the company does not charge or collect sales tax on behalf of its users. Squarespace does not have any contractual agreement or relationship with any state or local government to do so.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that squarespace does not currently calculate sales tax. This may cause issues at tax time. We recommend using a different platform or service that can calculate sales tax for you.

Therefore, it is up to the customer to enter their state’s sales tax information into their account.

While this information is provided for convenience, it is ultimately the responsibility of the customer to ensure that they are charging and collecting the correct sales tax amount. If you have any questions or concerns about sales tax, please contact your state’s tax authority.
