Local tax & compliance

What Phoenix businesses should know about Arizona taxes

S

State income tax

Arizona 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

Arizona’s statewide base sales tax rate is 5.6%. 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 Arizona

Arizona charges a transaction privilege tax (TPT) on the seller rather than a traditional sales tax, and cities add their own TPT rates.

F

Where you file

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