Ohio sales tax your remote bookkeeper Columbus handles

Ohio has a state sales tax of 5.75 per cent. Local rates are added on top of the state rate and vary by city and county, so your bookkeeper applies the current rate to each sale. Your bookkeeper tracks the rate on every eligible sale and keeps records ready for each Ohio Department of Taxation filing.

Columbus is Ohio's state capital and growing major Midwest city. Key local sectors are financial services and insurance, technology, healthcare, education, and retail and e-commerce. Financial services businesses track client billing, compliance costs and reporting. Technology businesses track software billing and cloud costs. Healthcare and education businesses track billing and supplier invoices. Retail and e-commerce businesses track sales income, cost of goods and fulfilment costs. Your bookkeeper handles all of these record types. Shifts run on Eastern Time so your bookkeeper is there when your Columbus office is open.

Your bookkeeper uses QuickBooks, Xero or FreshBooks. They send a brief weekly report. You pick the tool; they work in it.
