Resolution

  • This error is caused by using production AvaTax account credentials in a NetSuite sandbox or vice versa.  Production NetSuite instances can only use production AvaTax account credentials.  NetSuite sandbox instances can only use AvaTax development accounts.  

  • The Service URL must match the account type during validation.

  • This issue is resolved by entering AvaTax account credentials that match the NetSuite account type.
