Transaction Tax Reporting

Transaction tax reporting includes taxes created by the legislative branch of governments such as, sales, communications services and E911 tax, and also surcharges imposed by the executive branch of governments like FCC and State Universal Service Funds. Filing and remitting payments for these returns is complex; different rules apply for every state and local jurisdiction.

We maintain and renew your annual licenses which provides a complete turnkey solution that delivers peace of mind.
