Sales Tax Compliance
Sales tax compliance refers to the process businesses must follow to correctly collect, report, and remit sales taxes to the government on the goods and services they sell. Each state has specific rules regarding tax rates and exemptions. Businesses need to register with the appropriate tax authorities, keep accurate records of sales and taxes collected, file regular tax returns, and pay the owed taxes on time. Non-compliance can lead to penalties, fines, and interest charges, making it essential for businesses to understand their obligations and stay updated on any changes in tax laws.
