Geolocation Rate Charges
Sales and use tax rates are complex and vary across jurisdictions, counties, and state lines. Avalara assesses real-time rates based on geolocation (not zip codes) where Buyers are charged the correct rate for their purchases from your Farm.

Apply Appropriate Tax Rates
Avalara calculates the proper tax rate for various circumstances, including product-specific tax rates, sales tax holidays, shipping and handling rules, and more.

On-Demand Reporting
Farmers can easily generate reports on transactions, liabilities, and tax exemptions. Avalara reports will allow Farmers to save money and the amount of time it takes to prepare tax returns or address auditor requests.

FAQs about Barn2Door + Avalara

 

  • Both. Avalara will automatically calculate the appropriate tax rate based on the specific tax requirements for the state in which the Farmer is located (origin-based sales tax states) or for the state to which the item is being shipped (destination-based sales tax states).

  • To connect Barn2Door with Avalara, you must set up an account with Avalara first. You may join the accounts from the Account page on Barn2Door. Avalara is located under the ‘Taxes’ tab in the left-hand navigation menu.

    Note: you must have an account number and a license key to sync the two accounts properly.

  • Farmers can assign tax codes to items from the dropdown menu in the Basics section of the Offer Details page. This is where Farmers can also adjust an item’s tax code when editing an existing product.
