Connecticut has only one statewide sales tax; there are no additional sales taxes imposed by local jurisdictions. Your filing frequency depends on your sales liability of the prior 12-month period ending June 30: if you owed $1,000 or less, you are an annual filer. If you owed $1,001 to $4,000, you are a quarterly filer. Businesses with larger tax liability are monthly filers and may be subjected to additional payment and filing requirements.

Since 2021, eight additional states and multiple jurisdictions have passed similar laws.
