📣Kansas Small Business Tip: Do You Need a Sales Tax Account?

Starting a business, or turning a hobby into one? Add sales tax registration to your checklist!

🌻 Kansas businesses selling taxable goods or providing taxable services generally must register with the Kansas Department of Revenue before making taxable sales.

💵 There’s generally no minimum sales amount for retailers located in Kansas. Even small sales can trigger the requirement. It’s about what you sell, not just how much you earn.

🛍️ Flowers, clothing, crafts, and other retail merchandise are generally taxable. Some services are exempt, so check the rules for your specific business.

💻 Register through the Kansas Department of Revenue Customer Service Center at ksrevenue.gov.

📝 A Kansas sales tax account is different from a federal Employer Identification Number (EIN). Having an EIN does not automatically register your business to collect Kansas sales tax.

Once registered, follow your assigned filing schedule, even during periods with no sales.

A little preparation helps you start strong! Save this reminder and share it with a fellow business owner. 💛
