Legal advice on US sales tax without Nexus and non US resident?

I'm currently charging sales tax for some states as a non US resident becaue of threshold limits. But what would be if I charge for every state without paying to some?

This would be considered tax fraud as an US resident, but would it actually be as an non US resident? Because I operate by the laws of my country and I'm not required to charge VAT for sales outside of my legal region. But I also can't be forbidden and enforce not to do by a countries laws (excluding certain things) I have no physical presence in.

This kind of confuses me, there aren't even tax fraud reports available for non-US residents.

If you have no nexus and are not even a resident here there is no sales tax owed to any state.

There actually is a way. Once you have a certain number of sales/transactions within a state you are required to have a nexus even if you're outside of the US. Every state has it's own numbers but business from outside of the US have a nexus in that case. But I'm not aware of the consequences or the chances of getting caught. That's for example why Aliexpress is required to collect sales taxes from US customers. It's almost common knowledge in the dropshipping community.

You have the same issue with the EU, UK and AU or CA, don't remember it right now.

Just googled I had no idea that was a thing now, economic nexus.
Ill def be looking into it, wonder how this affects foreign owned US LLC or non US corps selling here. I guess I now have the same questions as you ha thank you.

Hello I have heard about that as well but you would best to ask someone who actually does Accounts based in America. I would guess someone maybe American based an Accountant on this website but you would to me smarter just paying American based Account or some kind of other Financial advisor to give you advice.

If' you're from the US you're probably closer to an answer because it's a super niche question and good luck finding someone who has a decent answer.
That's why I tried BHW, people on here do all kinds of stuff.

Did you guys find a solution?

The only way I found is to either straight up just not pay and hope they dont catch you

Or

Put it in someone elses name for 0 liability (there is actually someone I know that facilitates this), but maybe there are better options..
