The Colorado Use Tax applies when a Colorado resident makes a purchase of goods online, via telephone or via catalog ordering services from an out-of-state seller, and that seller does NOT charge Colorado sales tax on the purchase.
To be compliant, the Colorado resident purchaser must report and pay use tax to the State of Colorado on the purchase.
You will need to review your online, telephone or catalog purchases from out-of-state sellers to verify whether the Colorado sales tax was charged, and if not, pay the sales tax on that item. Any food you purchase is likely not taxable, but clothing, electronics, appliances or other tangible property would be taxable.
