What is trailing nexus?

Most states make you keep filing for a while after you drop below their threshold. California runs through the next full calendar year. Texas uses a rolling twelve months. We track each state's rule so you cancel on the right date, not too early.

Will I get in trouble for canceling a permit?

Not if you do it in the right order. We file every outstanding and final return first, then guide the cancellation. The real risk is canceling early or skipping a final return, which is exactly what we prevent.

Which platforms do you support?

Amazon, Shopify and WooCommerce, with BigCommerce, Etsy, Walmart and eBay supported through manual entry. You can also enter your states by hand on any platform.

Do you file my returns?

Yes. During the wind-down we file the zero-dollar returns so nothing lapses, and once you're deregistered in a state there's nothing left to file.

How is this different from Avalara or TaxJar?

They help you register and file more. We help you deregister and file less. We only charge for the states you keep.

No. TrailingZero is software that flags deregistration opportunities and handles filings. For complex situations we tell you when to bring in your accountant.

Is TrailingZero live?

Yes. Free audits are live now — run yours in minutes. Connect a store read-only or enter your registered states by hand to see which you can cancel and what it saves.

Short answer

Be careful. Nevada bars permit cancellation solely due to losing economic nexus. Once a seller no longer meets the threshold, they are not required to collect and remit tax, but must continue filing returns with all sales reported as exempt (column A total sales, column B exempt).

Do you still have nexus in Nevada?

You can only cancel once your obligation has ended. Two things create it: physical presence (inventory, an employee, an office) and economic nexus (crossing $100,000 in sales or 200 transactions).

For Amazon FBA and 3PL sellers the sneaky one is physical nexus: storing inventory in Nevada creates it. Physical presence including offices, employees, or inventory stored in Nevada warehouses (e.g., Amazon FBA fulfillment centers) creates physical nexus immediately. If that inventory has since left the state, your physical nexus may have already ended even though the registration is still open.

Trailing nexus in Nevada

Nevada bars permit cancellation solely due to losing economic nexus. Once a seller no longer meets the threshold, they are not required to collect and remit tax, but must continue filing returns with all sales reported as exempt (column A total sales, column B exempt). Permit cancellation is only permitted if the business is closing, restructuring, or selling. The practical trailing filing obligation continues indefinitely until a qualifying business closure event occurs.

Nevada bars permit cancellation for loss of economic nexus. Seller must continue filing zero/exempt returns. Permit closure requires a business closure, restructuring, or sale event — not merely dropping below the threshold.
