In general, if you are drop shipping to a customer in a different state, you typically do not need to charge California sales tax, as the transaction takes place outside of California. However, you must comply with the sales tax laws of the state where the customer is located. If you have a sales tax nexus in that state, you may be required to collect and remit sales tax based on their regulations. It's advisable to consult with a tax professional for specific guidance based on your situation.
