Overview

Have you ever questioned the effect current events have on sales taxes? They actually have quite an impact.

Business owners and those working in finance should be aware of current events to keep up with sales tax changes that could influence their business. From litigation results to legislative initiatives and even Department of Revenue “clean up” efforts, changes are always happening and keeping on top of all of these are critical to keeping a business in compliance.

This webinar will cover all the sales tax essentials, including taxability and exemptions, rates, nexus issues, administrative items, and more for Midwestern states.

When you manage sales tax, a huge part is tracking all the legislative changes, so you don’t miss a new requirement. This webinar will get you up to speed on important recent legislative changes and rule updates for the Midwest region including significant court cases, crucial sales tax updates, and more.

This webinar will cover the following midwestern states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.

Who should attend?

This webinar is intended for businesses or individuals who have business operations in the Midwest region of the United States or make sales into those states. It is best for financial and operations personnel—including tax, general accounting, accounts payable, sales, tax technology, purchasing, and accounts receivable/credit—who deal with sales and use tax as part of their responsibilities. The course is designed for all levels of experience.

“I’m a sales tax nerd and the Sales Tax Institute’s webinars are always informational, even for seasoned professionals.”

Additional Details About the Midwest Sales Tax Spotlight Webinar

If you currently do business or are planning to do business in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, you need to be aware of key sales tax issues and unique tax situations for those states.

Sales tax rules and legislation are constantly changing at the state level. It can be nearly impossible to keep up with every important law change or court ruling that is taking place.

The Midwestern region has its own challenges and critical updates. For example, Ohio has modified its CAT tax threshold removing filing and minimum tax requirements from many businesses and Minnesota’s retail delivery fee is fast approaching with a July 1, 2024, effective date.

Join the webinar to learn how the Midwestern states are taking on the world of sales tax and what that means for your company. You’ll get caught up on significant sales tax updates and legislative changes that can influence your company’s sales and operations.

Be sure you’re taking advantage of what’s happening in sales tax right now in the Midwest United States!
