FAQ
Contractors engaging in taxable construction projects or activities are required to obtain a TPT license.
If a business is selling a product or engaging in a service subject to TPT, that business will likely need a license from the Arizona Department of Revenue (ADOR) and a TPT, or business/occupational license, from the city or cities in which the business has a base or operation.
Just because the ad says it does NOT mean it's true! An unlicensed entity may be a company or individual. To be a contractor in Arizona, an entity must be licensed.
Are services taxable in Arizona? Arizona has a transaction privilege tax (TPT) that operates similarly to sales and use tax in other states. Some professional services, amusement/entertainment services, and services to tangible personal property are taxable in Arizona.
This applies to TPT licensees that are registered and have filed returns using business code 045 for engaging in the business classification of residential rental. Residential rental is the rental of real property for a period of 30 or more consecutive days for residential (i.e. noncommercial) purposes only.
Taxable Contracting Activities All contractors are considered to be prime contractors and must have a transaction privilege license. This includes general contractors, subcontractors, and specialty contractors.
Local extremes The lowest rate, 7.6 percent, is in Huachuca City, near the Fort Huachuca military base. Other combined rates for larger cities in the state include Glendale (9.2 percent), Mesa (8.05 percent), Peoria (8.1 percent), Surprise (8.5 percent) and Tempe (8.1 percent).
Arizona originally adopted TPT in 1933 when the rate for selling tangible personal property at retail was 2 percent. That rate is currently 5.6 percent. On top of the state TPT, there may be one or more local TPTs, as well as one or more special district taxes, each of which can range between 0 percent and 5.6 percent.
