Arizona Transaction Privilege Tax (Sales Tax) License for PLLC, Professional Corporation, LLP, LLC, Corporation

Arizona imposes a Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT), which is equivalent to a sales tax and is based on gross proceeds and gross income derived from a vendor’s activities. Businesses are required to file for a TPT license if they sell a product or engage in a service subject to this tax in the state. The vendor is liable for the tax, regardless of whether or not the vendor passes on the economic burden of the tax to the customer. Cities often impose their own TPT which is administered and collected by the Arizona Department of Revenue, so no additional license applications are required. Licenses are valid for a calendar year and must be renewed annually.

Businesses that are subject to the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) must file the Transaction Privilege, Use, and Severance Tax Return (Form TPT-2) whether or not they have any sales. Businesses with more than one location or that have an annual TPT liability of more than $500 during the prior calendar year are required to file and pay electronically at AZTaxes.gov. The filing schedule depends on the estimated annual combined Arizona, county and municipal Transaction Privilege Tax liability: less than $2,000 must file annually, between $2,000 and $8,000 must file quarterly, and more than $8,000 must file monthly.

California Nonprofit Filing Requirements 2024

Nonprofit organizations play an important role in our communities. They provide essential services, advocate for important causes, and create positive social impact. If your organization is a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit, you enjoy specific tax-exempt benefits granted by the federal government. These benefits are well worth protecting. Maintaining your nonprofit status requires staying organized and on top of important deadlines. The various filing requirements can feel overwhelming, and missing due dates can lead to penalties or even revocation of your tax-exempt status.

Understanding California’s Economic Tax Nexus Test

Tax nexus refers to a relationship between a business entity and a taxing jurisdiction. There are four main types: income tax nexus, sales and use tax nexus, franchise tax nexus, and excise tax nexus. If your business has one of these types of nexus in a state, you may need to pay the corresponding tax type there. Determining where you have each type of nexus is a critical—and complicated—compliance task. Nexus criteria and qualification thresholds vary by state. Some states also “test” for nexus in different ways.
