Montana levies no statewide general sales tax — one of only five states where that is true. That removes the single largest source of quiet liability for e-commerce and online sellers and shifts the work onto payroll, entity filings, and the obligations below.

Employer registration runs through the Montana Department of Labor and Industry, and the entity is registered with the Montana Secretary of State. No general sales tax. Resort communities may levy a local resort tax on lodging and certain retail.
