State Sales Tax
- State sales tax is where you decide which states OrderPort will calculate sales tax for. Every state that you ship should be checked.
-If you are not sure about shipping and handling being taxed set it to let tax service decide.
State Licenses
- This is where you enter your licensing information for each state that you ship to. Please note this does not verify that it is a valid license, and it is up to the winery to manage your license.
- If a 3rd party holds your license and ships for you, enter a placeholder license.
- Some states have shipping restrictions based on alcohol % or volume per month. These restrictions can be added to your license in OrderPort.
Sales Tax Rules
- This is where you can set up a sales tax rule if you wish to charge tax based on the winery location instead of by the shipping destination.
Tax Rates by Location
- This tab shows you the sales tax of each of your tasting room locations broken down by product type. These rates are pulled directly from our tax service.
-If for any reason these need to be changed toggle the Hardcode button and manually adjust the tax rate.
Liquor Stores
- This is specifically for the State of Alabama. Alabama requires all alcohol shipments to be sent to a licensed liquor store where the customer can pick it up.
-If you know if a Licensed store you can add it here as a shipping option for your customers.
