Sales and use tax reporting is a major compliance challenge for companies of all kinds. With taxing authorities at both local and state levels, and differing rules for transactions across jurisdictional boundaries, each transaction must be accurately reported and appropriate taxes paid. SMART’s SAS70 Certified sales and use tax compliance team has  the skills and resources to ensure timely, effective reporting and payment.

We work retrospectively, with preparation and filing of refunds, and proactively through training and guidelines for those who make the day-to-day decisions on taxable purchases. We maintain continuing awareness of constantly changing regulations and court cases that bring new interpretations of laws and regulations already in effect. This awareness supports SMART’s professionals in reviewing your purchases and recovering tax dollars on your behalf—dollars that go right to your bottom line.
