​Sales Tax for Sellers on Ya’Mar

Effective Date: May 20, 2026

This Seller Sales Tax Policy (“Policy”) is incorporated by reference into the Ya’Mar Terms of Service and applies to all sellers using the Ya’Mar marketplace application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”).

By listing, selling, advertising, promoting, or completing transactions through the Platform, sellers agree to comply with this Policy and all incorporated Platform Policies.

Ya’Mar LLC (“Ya’Mar,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) may update this Policy periodically to reflect operational needs, legal developments, tax law changes, marketplace facilitator requirements, customs obligations, payment processor requirements, or regulatory guidance. Continued use of the Platform after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy where permitted by law.

1. Marketplace Facilitator Role

In jurisdictions where marketplace facilitator laws apply, Ya’Mar may be legally required to calculate, collect, report, remit, withhold, or process applicable sales taxes on behalf of sellers for qualifying transactions completed through the Platform.

Where required by law, Ya’Mar may collect applicable state, county, city, provincial, territorial, regional, or local taxes from buyers during checkout and remit those amounts to the appropriate tax authorities under Ya’Mar’s marketplace facilitator registrations or related tax obligations.

Sales tax calculation, collection, remittance, payment processing, fraud prevention systems, and related tax services may be facilitated through third-party providers including Stripe and affiliated payment or tax service providers.

Where Ya’Mar is legally required to collect and remit applicable taxes as a marketplace facilitator, sellers generally are not required to separately collect those same sales taxes from buyers for qualifying Platform transactions.

2. When Sales Tax Applies

Sales tax applicability depends on factors including buyer location, delivery address, item type, transaction structure, applicable laws, shipping charges, local tax regulations, exemptions, marketplace facilitator requirements, and operational tax rules.

Applicable taxes may include state taxes, county taxes, city taxes, provincial taxes, territorial taxes, regional taxes, local taxes, or similar transaction-based taxes imposed by governmental authorities.

Shipping charges, handling fees, service fees, Platform fees, processing fees, or related charges may also be taxable depending on the applicable jurisdiction and governing tax laws.

Buyers will generally see applicable taxes displayed separately during checkout before transactions are finalized.

3. Seller Responsibilities

Sellers remain solely responsible for understanding and complying with all applicable tax obligations associated with their business activities, including income taxes, business taxes, nexus obligations, VAT obligations, GST obligations, customs obligations, import/export taxes, resale certificate obligations, recordkeeping requirements, and reporting obligations.

Marketplace facilitator laws do not eliminate all seller tax obligations, and sellers may remain responsible for tax compliance in jurisdictions where Ya’Mar is not legally required to collect or remit taxes on the seller’s behalf.

Sellers additionally remain responsible for maintaining accurate business information, tax identification information, payout information, legal entity information, and any required tax documentation associated with their accounts.

Ya’Mar does not determine whether sellers have tax nexus, business registration obligations, licensing requirements, VAT registration obligations, customs registration obligations, or other regulatory obligations in any jurisdiction.

4. Tax Reporting and Documentation

Ya’Mar or its payment processors may issue tax reporting forms, including IRS Form 1099-K or similar tax documentation, where required by applicable law.

Sellers remain solely responsible for reviewing, maintaining, storing, and accurately reporting all transaction information, payout records, fees, deductions, tax documents, customs information, refunds, chargebacks, adjustments, and business records associated with their Platform activity.

Where applicable, sellers may be required to provide taxpayer identification information, business documentation, verification materials, or additional compliance documentation to Ya’Mar, Stripe, payment processors, regulators, financial institutions, customs authorities, or tax authorities.

Failure to provide required tax or verification information may result in payout delays, withheld funds, reserve requirements, restricted account functionality, account suspension, or additional compliance reviews.

5. Exemptions and Resale Certificates

Where legally permitted, certain buyers may claim resale exemptions or tax-exempt status for qualifying transactions.

If a seller requires resale certificates, exemption documentation, business records, or related tax materials from buyers, the seller remains solely responsible for reviewing, validating, storing, maintaining, and complying with applicable laws governing such documentation.

Ya’Mar does not review, validate, approve, certify, guarantee, or store resale certificates or exemption documentation unless otherwise required by law.

Sellers remain solely responsible for determining whether claimed exemptions are valid, lawful, and applicable to specific transactions.

6. International Transactions, VAT, and Customs

International transactions may involve VAT obligations, GST obligations, customs duties, brokerage fees, import taxes, export taxes, digital services taxes, sanctions restrictions, customs declarations, or similar international tax obligations depending on applicable law and transaction structure.

Ya’Mar may display tax estimates, customs notices, shipping notices, VAT-related notices, or checkout disclosures for informational purposes; however, sellers remain solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable international tax obligations and customs requirements associated with their business activities.

International tax laws vary significantly by jurisdiction and may change frequently.

7. Tax Adjustments, Corrections, and Recovery Rights

Ya’Mar reserves the right to correct tax calculations, technical errors, undercharges, overcharges, operational mistakes, processing errors, tax miscalculations, shipping-related tax errors, customs-related processing errors, or remittance issues where reasonably necessary for legal compliance, marketplace facilitator obligations, customs compliance, payment processor requirements, fraud prevention, or operational protection.

Where permitted by law, sellers authorize Ya’Mar and its payment processors to recover unpaid taxes, tax adjustments, customs duties, VAT obligations, GST obligations, processing adjustments, shipping-related tax charges, penalties, remittance adjustments, or related amounts from payouts, balances, reserves, future transactions, linked payment methods, bank accounts, or funding sources associated with the seller account.

Recovery rights survive account closure, suspension, restriction, termination, chargebacks, disputes, or attempts to remove payment methods from the Platform.

8. No Tax Advice

Ya’Mar does not provide legal, accounting, customs, financial, business, or tax advice.

Sellers are solely responsible for consulting qualified legal, accounting, customs, or tax professionals regarding tax obligations, business registrations, VAT obligations, nexus requirements, customs obligations, international tax compliance, reporting obligations, resale certificates, exemptions, or regulatory compliance applicable to their business activities.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ya’Mar is not responsible for seller tax filings, tax calculations outside Ya’Mar’s legal obligations, customs obligations, VAT obligations, business registration requirements, penalties, audits, regulatory determinations, tax authority disputes, reporting errors caused by seller information, or losses arising from seller noncompliance with applicable tax laws.

Users acknowledge that tax laws frequently change and may vary by jurisdiction.

10. Relationship to Other Policies

This Policy operates together with the Ya’Mar Terms of Service, Buyer Sales Tax Policy, International Shipping Policy, Privacy Policy, Seller Verification & Transparency Policy, Ya’Mar Shield Protection Policy, and all other incorporated Platform Policies.

In the event of conflict, the Terms of Service govern to the fullest extent permitted by law.
