Reporting
All businesses registered for sales and use tax purposes must use the Sales and Use Tax Report furnished by this Commission unless computer generated reporting is approved in writing by this Commission.
 
Reports are mailed to registered businesses every January and July. The ordinances require monthly reporting, however for many small businesses this is simply not practical. A business will be assigned a filing frequency of monthly, quarterly or occasional at the time of registration. Specific instructions will be furnished at that time.
