Running a website from Hawesville: the Kentucky rules
Having a website does not change the rules, but these apply to most Hawesville businesses:
- Kentucky sales and use tax is 6% of gross receipts, and there are no local sales and use taxes anywhere in the state. Kentucky Department of Revenue
- Out-of-state sellers have to collect Kentucky sales tax once they reach the state threshold: 200 or more sales into Kentucky, or $100,000 or more in gross receipts from sales into Kentucky. Kentucky still keeps the 200-transaction test. KRS 139.340(2)(g)
