Not unless you have a "tax presence" in the state where the buyer is located. There is no national sales tax, so the receiver is responsible for paying his own state taxes when the furniture is delivered there, if furniture is taxable in that state. For example, you go from your residence in Boston, MA, and purchase furniture in "tax-free New Hampshire," which would be taxed at 5 percent in Massachusetts. The salesman collects no tax (as it is not due in NH) and the buyer must pay the MA sales tax directly to the state treasurer of MA. However, if the furniture store has a sales office (or warehouse) in MA, it must collect the sales tax from the MA resident, and send it to the MA treasurer, even if the furniture is shipped from "tax-free New Hampshire". If you WANT to charge sales tax for out-of-state sales, there is a growing union of merchants who rake off a percentage (with permission) from the state that would otherwise have to rely upon the morality and education of its citizens to pay sales taxes on things they bought someplace else.
