What Florida sales tax filing services include
Florida sales tax filing services turn your sales records into the information needed to prepare and file the appropriate Florida sales and use tax return. The work may include reviewing taxable and exempt sales, checking applicable county surtax, and preparing the return.
H&S Accounting & Tax Services can also review whether a business needs to charge sales tax when scoped, handle Florida Department of Revenue registration when included, and address corrections.
Some work requires a separate scope.
Nexus reviews, multi-state registrations, voluntary disclosures, product taxability work, and sales tax audit support are not automatically part of routine filing.
Do you need help filing Florida sales tax?
You may need help if the filing looks simple but the numbers behind it are not.
- You’re registered but don’t want to prepare the DR-15 yourself.
- A prior Florida sales tax filing may need correction.
- You’re unsure whether the correct county surtax was collected.
- Taxable and exempt sales aren’t clearly separated.
- You need Florida sales tax registration before filing.
- Your books don’t match your sales reports.
Being an LLC does not, by itself, determine whether you must collect Florida sales tax. The transaction matters.
From your books to the DR-15
Our process keeps the sales tax return tied to the records your business provides.
- Confirm the filing requirement. We review the filing period, Florida account information, and reporting frequency.
- Review the sales records. We work from gross sales, taxable sales, exempt sales, sales tax collected, and related reports.
- Prepare the return. We review applicable surtax and map the final numbers to the proper return fields.
- Review and file. We resolve open questions, complete the filing according to scope, and flag issues that require separate work.
This follows the documented H&S Accounting & Tax Services engagement process.

Florida sales tax filing FAQs
Do I still file a Florida sales tax return if no tax is due?
Yes, if a return is required for that reporting period. The Florida Department of Revenue requires a sales and use tax return for each required reporting period even when no tax is due.
Can an incorrect DR-15 be corrected?
Yes. A previously filed return can be corrected when the original information was wrong. The supporting records matter, especially if sales or tax collected were reported incorrectly.
What if my sales records don't match the sales tax I collected?
Do not force the numbers to fit. Differences may come from exempt transactions, timing, bookkeeping errors, marketplace activity, or incorrect classifications. We first need to understand why the records disagree. Cleanup may be a separate service.
How much do Florida sales tax filing services cost?
Pricing varies by complexity. Filing frequency, record quality, corrections, registration requirements, number of jurisdictions, and multi-state issues can change the scope. H&S Accounting & Tax Services provides a quote after reviewing what your business needs.
