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.
