Ask HN: How to pay sales tax in 38 jurisdictions?

3 pointsMarkMcdiscuss

My company based in UAE runs a B2C website which charges monthly subscription fees through both Stripe and PayPal. The tax rules for collecting sales tax varies by state/country. I want to avoid spending time

(a) registering for sales tax in each jurisdiction;

(b) calculating the tax amount for each jurisdiction;

(c) submitting tax returns for each jurisdiction;

(d) paying tax to each jurisdiction.

Isn't there a 3rd party platform that can do this for a small commission? I'm thinking of a website where I enter my UAE company details, grant it read-only access to my Stripe and PayPal accounts, then the website does all of (a) to (d) above?
