Sales Tax Collection

If you sell tangible personal property (goods or products) to a customer (end user) retail, you must collect the appropriate sales tax. Sales tax is required on all tangible personal property that transfers title. A transfer of title occurs when an item is sold for a cash value to the end user. If the same item is resold by the end user to another user then tax is due because another transfer of title has taken place.


Please see our 
list of FYI publications for guidelines on collecting taxes on specific tangible personal property, goods and products including food items, ice, food/drink establishments, etc,.
