Multi-jurisdiction sales tax, platform payouts, and inventory that lives in someone else’s warehouse.
Shopify, Amazon, Etsy, and direct-to-consumer sellers. Sales-tax obligations depend on where your buyers are, not where you are — provincial PST/QST rules, US state economic nexus, and marketplace facilitator laws all interact. We map the exposure, register where you should be registered, and get the platform payouts, fees, and inventory movements into the books cleanly.
What actually differs
- Multi-jurisdiction sales-tax registration and filing (Canada + US where applicable)
- Marketplace facilitator rules for Amazon, Etsy, and eBay
- Landed-cost inventory tracking, including duties and shipping
- Platform payout reconciliation (Stripe, Shopify Payments, Amazon reserves)
- Foreign-exchange tracking on USD and EUR sales
