Your 1099-K form will be mailed out to you if you opted out of the paperless-delivery by December 31, 2025.

If you weren’t able to opt-out of the paperless delivery option, you'll still be able to download an e-form on your Legal and tax information [https://www.etsy.com/your/account/taxpayerid] page by the end of January 2026.

If you qualified for a form you should be able to download your 1099-K by going to Shop Manager > Finances > Legal and tax information [https://www.etsy.com/your/account/taxpayerid] and selecting the appropriate year from the dropdown tool. You’ll see a download button to the right.

If no form is available, you can use your CSV files for income reporting. If you need assistance with this, I’d recommend reaching out to a tax professional.

  • In Atlas, go to Payments Information > Taxpayer Details and check the seller's (year, example: 2025) gross total. 
  • Compare to their screenshot and check for a match:
  1. If the totals match, let the seller know and mark as solved. 
  2. If the totals don't match, check for related shops/accounts and check for (year) gross totals.
