State offering webinar on business tax requirements

MONTGOMERY — State tax obligations for business owners – business licenses, sales tax, property tax, withholding, etc. – are a lot to be responsible for. To help Alabama business owners better understand and master these requirements, the Alabama Department of Revenue (ADOR) invites business owners to participate in one of ADOR’s free Business Essentials for State Taxpayers (B.E.S.T.) webinars. 

B.E.S.T. webinars help new business owners navigate through unfamiliar tax complexities while updating current business owners on tax law changes. Each webinar, conducted by ADOR specialists, offers a brief but comprehensive overview of a specific business tax topic, covers the business owner’s tax obligations, and highlights the necessary forms and other requirements regarding that tax topic. 

The webinars being offered in November are Business Personal Property Tax, Nov. 17, 10 – 10:30 a.m., and Business Privilege Licenses, Nov. 19, 2 – 2:30 p.m.There is no charge to attend a B.E.S.T. webinar, but reservations are required to obtain a meeting link. To sign up for either or both of these webinars, send an email to ador.training@revenue.alabama.gov and provide the name and email address for each individual attending and the name of the webinar. An email will provide a meeting link for the requested webinar to each individual listed.
