Sales Tax Guide for 3D RENT hub

Making Rentals Simple, Secure, and Compliant

Navigating sales tax rules can feel complicated, especially when renting high-value equipment online. At 3D RENT hub, we keep the process transparent and hassle-free for both vendors and renters.

 

Why Is There a Sales Tax?

Like all online marketplaces, 3D RENT hub is legally required to comply with U.S. state and local tax regulations. Sales tax laws apply to rentals just as they do to traditional product purchases. This isn’t a platform-specific policy—it’s part of standard marketplace compliance nationwide.

 

When Will You See Sales Tax?

Whenever a rental order is placed, the checkout page will display an estimated sales tax amount if the transaction is taxable under state or local law. This calculation is based on the delivery location of the rented equipment and the rules of that jurisdiction.

  • You’ll always see the tax before completing your order for taxable rentals.
  • No tax will be charged if the transaction is tax-exempt (a valid exemption certificate must be provided and attached to the order).

 

States Where 3D RENT hub Collects and Remits Sales Tax

If your rental is linked to a state where 3D RENT hub is registered, we will handle the tax collection and payment (remittance) on vendors’ behalf. This applies when the equipment is shipped to an address in that state.

 

What Does 3D RENT hub Do?

Our system manages the entire sales tax process for you:

  1. Calculate the correct tax rate, based on the renter’s location and state requirements.
  2. Collect the sales tax at checkout.
  3. Remit (pay) the tax directly to the appropriate state authority on behalf of our vendors.

✔️ This means vendors don’t need to worry about filing sales tax returns for marketplace-facilitated transactions.

 

Important Note

3D RENT hub is a registered sales tax vendor in states where collection and remittance are required. For example, any taxable rental shipped into one of these states will be subject to sales tax, and 3D RENT hub will handle reporting and remittance directly to that state’s Department of Revenue (or equivalent agency).
