  9. South Dakota v. Wayfair : the fallout ► The Wayfair decision eliminated the need for a remote seller to have physical presence in order for the state to compel registration/collection ► Physical presence still creates nexus ► Other state efforts to “work around” Quill remain in place (e.g., click-through, affiliate, and notice/reporting provisions) ► The new standard (economic nexus) allows states to require remote sellers to register and collect based on economic presence, measured by sales and/or transaction volume ► Most states require registration and collection if sales made into the state exceed $100,000 per year or occur in 200 or more transactions ► Nearly all states have adopted some form of economic nexus and approximately 40 states have extended the requirement to marketplace providers/facilitators ► States are also looking to adopt factor-presence nexus standards for income and other business taxes Page 7
