Local tax & compliance

What Jacksonville businesses should know about Florida taxes

S

State income tax

Florida has no personal income tax on wages, so most owners file only a federal income tax return. Business-level taxes can still apply, so your books still need to be accurate.

%

Sales tax

Florida’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.

!

Taxes to watch in Florida

Florida has no personal income tax, but C corporations pay state corporate income tax and most counties add a discretionary sales surtax.

F

Where you file

Most Florida business filings go to the Florida Department of Revenue. We keep your books organized so these returns are a simple handoff to you or your CPA.

General information as of 2026, not tax advice. Rates and rules change, so confirm current requirements with the Florida Department of Revenue or your tax advisor.
