Business Taxes

Did you know that Arizona is a transaction privilege tax (TPT) state as opposed to a true sales tax state? This means that income from certain business activities, such as construction contracting and rentals, are subject to transaction privilege (sales) tax. (23)

 

The links below will introduce you to information on a variety of taxes - including personal/corporate income tax, transaction privilege tax, use tax, and property tax - and direct you to additional information and resources. You may also wish to consult with your tax accountant.
