Sales Tax

Hello All,

I am getting ready to bring in a new tax consultant for 2025 for our business but was curious what others do on here that are in the same line of work that we are.  

We are located in north east maryland that services MD, PA, and DE (no sales tax).  The tax laws are wickedly confusing for me especially when it comes to lawn applications.  I have heard many different things and hope that my new agency will get it figured out but would appreciate any insight on this.

Thank you in advance and hope everyone has an amazing holiday break coming up!!!

Cheers

Jim

    It's a bit unnerving that "tax consultant" can't answer this specific question. Have you thought about hiring a CPA?

      My apologies.  I should have said "bringing in a new CPA".  My current CPA simply sent me MD's documents on sales tax laws.  Which inside of those docs I was confused on what is exempt from sales tax and when I asked was just told to "refer to the documents". The new CPA that I am getting ready to use has those services included but was just curious upfront what others were dealing with. 

  • My recommendation would be to consult with a CPA who can help assess the requirements! We have also utilized a QuickBooks coach who was highly knowledgeable in tax requirements.
