"Your tax obligation to amazon.ca"
If you're a US seller who sells on Amazon.ca, I would appreciate your experience here. Amazon started selling my FBA products on the Amazon.ca store, which is great. But suddenly I received an email today "Your tax obligations on Amazon.ca". This was unexpected as I thought Amazon would be collecting tax where necessary, like they do for the US Amazon.com. If anyone else has already dealt with this, what did you end up doing? My products are 100% FBA and I have only a US business, and as I'm the only person here I haven't had time to read through the mountains of docs, so I'm hoping someone will be nice enough to post a cliffs notes version of your experience with this.

It just dawned on me; I'm not importing anything into Canada myself, I'm just sending it to Amazon FBA in the USA. Amazon must be shipping them over when they sell and customs would be handling the import taxes. So since my business doesn't have an actual Canadian presence, I don't think I need to collect Canadian taxes myself at all. So basically nothing for me to do. That letter must be for people who ship directly to FBA warehouses in Canada, or ship merchant fulfilled orders directly to Canada.

CR from Amazon here, thank you for the post. While I am unable to provide specific tax advice, I have provided several resources below with more information on Amazon tax guidelines.
- Tax Guidelines
- State Tax Registration Numbers
- Amazon Tax-Exemption Program
- Marketplace Withheld Tax
- US Tax Interview FAQ
After review, if your question is still unanswered, I recommend that you create a case to Seller Support with your question and they can engage the Tax department.
