As a rule, you don't need a seller permit to do business online unless you sell products in a regulated industry such as health care. Amazon calculates, collects, and remits tax on merchants' sales delivered to customers in states that have enacted Marketplace Facilitator, Marketplace Fairness, or similar laws.

Q: I am based in Arizona and I do not have a storefront, I only sell online; does this mean I am a remote seller? A: Even without a storefront, if you are based in Arizona, you are an Arizona retailer will likely be required to obtain a transaction privilege tax (TPT) license.

If a remote seller or out-of-state marketplace facilitator meets the economic threshold for sales into Arizona, it will need a transaction privilege tax (TPT) license. By contrast, marketplace facilitators and retailers with a physical presence in Arizona must obtain a TPT license, irrespective of any threshold.

The cost for each license per location is $12. If the ownership is the same, the locations can be consolidated under one license number to allow the taxpayer to file a single return. Even vendors who only do business for special events in Arizona are required to have a license.
