The legal basics for Mountainair businesses online

These are some of the New Mexico and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

  • Selling to customers in other states? Each state sets its own threshold for remote sellers; New Mexico’s is At least $100,000 of taxable gross receipts in New Mexico in the previous calendar year (applies to sellers with no physical presence, including marketplace providers and marketplace sellers). Official source
  • New Mexico has no sales tax as such: it levies a GROSS RECEIPTS TAX on the seller.

An out-of-state seller reporting under the out-of-state location code pays the 4.875% statewide rate. New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department
