Set up your Arkansas filing

When setting up your Arkansas return, you'll need to provide the following information.

If you're unsure about any of this information, check your state sales tax registration certificate or call the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration at 501-682-7104.

Do you have a physical presence in Arkansas?

Physical presence may include: an office, storefront, employee, salesperson, contractor, warehouse, inventory, or trade show attendance.

  • If you answer YES, you'll be asked how many physical locations you have. You’ll then be asked to provide the address for your in-state physical location.
    • Note: TaxJar only supports users who have a single physical location in the state of Arkansas.

Your Arkansas tax account details

You'll need your sales tax registration information, which was provided to you by the state when you received your sales tax permit.

Account ID

This ID should be on the permit confirmation letter you received from the state.

Zip Code

This is the zip code you used to register your business with the state (usually the main address for your business in your home state.)

Last payment

This is the exact amount of the last payment you made to the state of Arkansas on your last return, your last estimated payment, or the $50.00 Sales Tax Permit fee. If you've never made a payment, enter $0 as the payment amount.

Tax filing frequency

Select the filing frequency assigned to you by the state.

You'll then see the first tax return we expect to file for you, based on the current date and the filing frequency you selected.

Review and submit

Take a moment to review your filing application. Once you've confirmed that all information is correct, click Submit.
