What about Amazon and on-line retailers?
October 9, 2024
Approximately 25% – 30% of retail sales in California are on-line. About 10% of Sebastopol’s sales taxes are from e-commerce, including Amazon. We receive all of the sales taxes from Amazon and other on-line retailers that we are entitled to. While the amount of sales tax Amazon generates for Sebastopol is confidential (all sales tax information for individual businesses is confidential), it falls within the same range of our top 25 local sales tax generators, but because it is not local it is not included in that group or in the Quarterly Report on Sales Tax and Business Activity.
