Florida Sales & Use Tax

Defending Florida Businesses Against Sales and Use Tax Disputes

Florida businesses are required to collect and remit sales tax on most goods and certain services, and to pay use tax on out-of-state purchases used within the state. The Florida Department of Revenue actively audits businesses for compliance, and a sales and use tax audit can result in significant assessments, penalties, and interest if errors are found.

Mitchell St. Louis, P.A. represents businesses of all sizes through Florida sales and use tax audits, assessments, and disputes, working to minimize liability and resolve issues efficiently.

What we handle:

Representation during Florida Department of Revenue sales tax audits
Disputing and appealing proposed assessments
Negotiating payment arrangements for sales tax liabilities
Advising on sales tax compliance and nexus issues
Defending against sales tax warrants and collection actions

Why it matters:

Sales tax liability can fall on business owners personally in some circumstances, and unresolved assessments can lead to liens or forced collection against the business. Addressing an audit or assessment early, with experienced representation, protects both the business and its owners.
