NORWALK, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--On April 1, 2019, California, the world’s fifth largest economy, becomes the 34th state to compel out-of-state sellers to collect sales tax as a result of the June 2018 Wayfair ruling. These states have a myriad sales tax rates, rules, and jurisdictions that create significant challenges for online retailers to resolve. TaxCloud is pleased to announce a national SiriusXM advertising campaign promoting its proprietary software that can relieve this sudden burden with immediacy and ease.
