You should configure NetSuite to correctly calculate your tax codes and rates. Specifically, your tax nexuses must be configured so that orders entered into NetSuite will properly reflect the tax.

-
You must identify what data will be synced between NetSuite and the marketplace or cart. For example, order information, SKUs, quantity, price, and product description, and other relevant information must be synced.
