How do I set up Sales Tax for a potential out of state customer?

I’m just starting out and have a question about the sales tax. My company is set up for WA and I’ve tested using my address in WA and everything showed up fine. Now I have a potential 

customer in FL asking what the total amount would be with shipping and taxes. I put in her address and it’s not generating any sales tax.  I see that many say to talk to their accountant, what if taxes need to be applied, how would we go about fixing this?

Add the state's tax rate in square and turn it on for online sales. check with a tax pro, too.

It seems like Washington State is a destination based sales tax state- see your State's rules here.

If you're going to do a lot of business in the future with out-of-state customers I'd look for a service that could handle the sales tax for you. We use DAVO (which syncs with Square).

 

As for the correct tax rate- you would need to add it to Square.
