A business is responsible for collecting and remitting all applicable state taxes if it has a physical presence within the state of Arizona, such as:
- A physical store
- A warehouse
- An office
- A sales representative
Additionally, an out-of-state seller is required to collect tax if they can be defined as a retailer. There are also a few important rules to consider when it comes to collecting and paying sales and use tax in Arizona:
- Shipping is not deemed to be taxable
- Sales tax is not charged on finance charges when they are stated separately
- The sales tax rate also applies to clothing
- This state does not have any sales tax holidays planned
