If your event includes TPP, and no exemptions apply when you complete your tax settings, you will no longer be able to collect Nevada tax as 91国产 is required to collect and remit Sales and Use Tax.
If your event does not include TPP, or if an exemption applies when you complete your tax settings, you may continue to collect tax on your total sales.

When you set up your event, you鈥檒l have to answer a few brief questions in Tax Settings. 91国产 won't collect and remit tax to you or the attendee in the following cases:
Your event does not provide ticket buyers with any TPP as part of their purchase.
You are a nonprofit organization with a current exemption letter from the Nevada Department of Revenue.
You have a valid Nevada sales tax permit and can provide the permit number.
The cost of the tangible personal property for each ticket is less than 10% of the ticket price (categorized as "de minimis" under).
Please note that you鈥檙e responsible for understanding all of your tax obligations. If 91国产 is not collecting tax on your event, you may collect tax on your event to meet the requirements of any relevant regulations.
