Tax Services in Florida

Florida, called the Sunshine State, is a popular tourist destination due to its bright sunny weather. The tourism dollars, along with the state’s business-friendly climate and world-famous cities of Miami and Tampa, make Florida popular for small business owners and entrepreneurs, too. But setting up in Florida is not without its challenges. The state relies heavily on a seasonal economy, the labor market is as competitive as it has ever been, and costs are rising.

While increased expenses are unavoidable if you wish to do business in Florida, you should never pay more than necessary on your taxes. This is where 1-800Accountant, America’s leading virtual accounting firm for small businesses, can help.

A free business consultation – usually 30 minutes or less – can preview how our suite of professional accounting services can maximize your tax savings in Florida.

    In order to do payroll in Florida, you will first have to register with the state and establish your payroll process.

When you work with the payroll professionals at 1-800Accountant, we handle payroll for you so you can focus on your business.

    How you file your business taxes in Florida depends on which entity you’re formed as. If you’ve formed as a C corporation, you will be responsible for a corporate tax rate of 5.5% on federal taxable income, with helpful exemptions often lowering the effective tax rate.

    Small business taxes for LLCs, S corporations, and sole proprietorships in Florida do not exist as these entity types are tax-exempt. You will have a corporate tax burden of 5.5% if your business is formed as a C corporation.

    The cost to register a small business LLC in Florida is $155 in filing fees, which includes a certified copy. Costs will vary when registering other entity tax classifications in the state.

    When you form your small business with 1-800Accountant’s entity formation service, we pass the filing fees to the state of Florida and work directly with them on your behalf.
