Which sales tax form to file

If you don't know which form to file, use the table below as a general guide. If you still have questions, contact us about your business's filing requirements.

See the due dates calendar to avoid late filing penalties and interest.



You should file: Forms & schedules
  • An annual return if you owe $3,000 or less in tax during an annual filing period.
     
  • The Department will notify you by mail that we switched you to an annual filer. We mail letters, the Form TR-100 Sales and Compensating Use Tax Annual Filing Opportunity, in March.
     
  • If you would like to continue filing a quarterly return instead of an annual return, you must notify the Department.
