# Registering for a West Virginia sales tax permit

West Virginia's state sales tax rate is 6%, local taxes come on top, and its remote seller threshold is $100,000 in sales or 200 transactions, measured over the preceding calendar year (or current year once met). If your business has crossed it and needs a permit, we prepare and submit the state registration through tax.wv.gov/Business/BusinessRegistration/Pages/BusinessRegistration.aspx for $99, plus any state fee at cost.

## The West Virginia rule for out-of-state sellers

WV Tax Division: remote sellers with more than $100,000 in sales or 200 or more separate transactions for delivery into the state in the preceding calendar year must collect; if either is met during the current year, collection starts for later sales. Effective January 1, 2019. Municipalities that impose sales and use tax do so at 1%. State rate 6% per WV Administrative Notice 2013-24 (older source; not re-stated on the 2026 remote seller page).

## What filing looks like afterward

Filing frequency is assigned by the Tax Division based on registration information and may be reviewed annually; returns and payments are due on the 20th day of the month after the reporting period (annual returns 30 days after the period closes).

The state has a marketplace facilitator law, so sales through a marketplace that collects for you are handled by the marketplace.

Paperwork only: whether your sales count toward the threshold is a tax question for your preparer. State fees at cost.
