Local tax & compliance

What San Jose businesses should know about California taxes

S

State income tax

California 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

California’s statewide base sales tax rate is 7.25%. 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 California

Most California LLCs and corporations owe an $800 minimum annual franchise tax, even in a loss year.

F

Where you file

Most California business filings go to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (sales tax) and Franchise Tax Board (income tax). 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 California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (sales tax) and Franchise Tax Board (income tax) or your tax advisor.
