What Detroit businesses should know about Michigan taxes

Michigan taxes personal income, so owners of pass-through businesses (sole proprietors, LLCs, and S corporations) need clean, reconciled year-end books for their state return.

Sales tax

Michigan’s statewide base sales tax rate is 6%. Local taxes are often added on top, so the rate you charge depends on where your sales happen. We track sales tax collected separately from revenue so filing is simple.
