Every business owner might have these questions that if you don’t have any sales tax to a state in which you are doing business then are you required to file a tax return with the state authorities or not? Many people have this question when they are doing sales tax filing.

Most businesses consider this because you never know if or when you might encounter some scenario related to it. Online businesses or online sellers should monitor their sales tax nexus. This sales tax nexus requires them to pay taxes on the sales which are made by the residents of that state. In some cases, they also have to file a tax return even if they don’t owe any sales tax.

For example, your online clothing business may sell their products nationwide but they fail to make any sales in Utah, where your warehouse is and where it gives you sales tax nexus. In situations like this, you don’t need to file a tax return, but the state requires your business to do so.

Below mentioned are five different states that require you to remit sales tax filings even when you don’t owe any sales tax or had made any sales in the reporting period.
