Vermont - Understanding Tax Collection

For events in Vermont, you’ll see a charge of up to 7% of the total amount charged to the attendee (‘buyer total’) for Vermont Sales Tax. For detailed information, visit tax.vermont.gov. Learn more about tax on ticket sales.

  • If you’ve been collecting tax in Vermont
  • If you or your event is tax-exempt

Under the Eventbrite Merchant Agreement, you authorize Eventbrite to collect and remit taxes on your ticket sales in jurisdictions where Eventbrite is legally required to do so. Please note that you’re responsible for understanding all of your tax obligations.

If you’ve been collecting tax in Vermont

You will no longer be able to collect tax in Vermont since Eventbrite is now responsible to collect and remit sales tax on ticket sales.

If you or your event is tax-exempt

When you set up your event, you’ll have to answer a couple brief questions in Tax Settings. Tax won’t be charged to you or the attendee if you’re a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that made less than $100,000 in gross sales of admissions in Vermont during the prior calendar or if your event is for a class or instruction in athletics or recreation.

NOTE: Eventbrite may request supporting documents to verify your answer(s). You’re responsible for providing supporting documents when requested.
