Upload Shopify sales data
If you are not using Tax Determination or an API to share transaction data with Sales Tax Filing, you need to upload your transactions in a file.
Transaction data must be uploaded by the fourth business day of each month. If the data is not uploaded by then, Sovos can't guarantee that the return will be filed on time in that filing period.
-
Make sure that the file is in CSV UTF-8 format.
-
Make sure the dates follow this format: MM/DD/YYYY 00:00:00 AM/PM (for example, 10/1/2025 10:34:33 AM).
-
Add a column to the file with the header Marketplace code.
-
Add a column with the header Exempt.
-
Make sure that the file contains the following required Shopify fields, which are automatically mapped to Sovos fields:
| Shopify Field | Sovos Field |
|---|---|
| Taxes | Tax Amount |
| Shipping Street | Ship To Street Name With Number |
| Shipping Province | Ship To State/Province |
| Shipping Zip | Ship To Postal Code |
| Shipping Country | Ship To Country |
| Shipping City | Ship To City |
| Line item quantity | Quantity |
| Subtotal | Gross Amount |
| Name | Document Number |
| Created at | Document Date |
| Financial Status | Debit/Credit Indicator |
| Currency | Currency |
| Paid at | Accounting Date |
Your transaction data will be available in Sales Tax Filing within 24 hours.
