If you want Walmart to collect taxes from buyers on your behalf, be careful while applying Tax Codes to your products.
To apply Tax Codes to your products
- Go to the current Walmart Tax Codes from Walmart Marketplace knowledge base.
- Download the file in Zip format.
- Expand the Zip file. This file will open on the introduction tab.
- Click on the tab called GS list. This tab shows the actual codes that you need. Filter all the columns and save the file for future use.
- The most important codes in this file are Tax Codes shown in the column GSID and Tax Code Description shown in the column GSDESC.
- To find the Tax Code, look for the description that best describes your product.
For example- If you want a Tax Code for apparels, search for the relevant description in the GSDESC column.
Note:
- You can refine your search by including other columns.
- If you do not want Walmart to collect tax on your behalf, you can search in GSDESC for exempt retail and you will spot the corresponding Tax Code (2038711) in GSID.
- If you want to instruct Walmart to collect Generic Sales Tax, search for “taxable retail” (2038710).
- Special Conditions such as extra Environmental Tax on electronic items or Tax-Free items such as children’s clothing will not be accounted for if you use the Generic Tax Code.
You even have a column that differentiates between goods, services, and other genres.
After becoming familiar with the Tax Code sheet, you can easily set Tax Codes to your products.
