S 240 Form PDF Details

With the myriad of regulations surrounding temporary events, the importance of accurate and legal documentation cannot be overstated. Among such essential documents is the S-240 form, or the Wisconsin Temporary Event Operator and Seller Information form, a critical tool for ensuring compliance with state tax requirements. This form serves a dual purpose: it captures necessary details about the event from the operators, including the event's name, dates, and location, and gathers comprehensive information from sellers participating in the event. Furthermore, the S-240 form clarifies the responsibilities of both the event operators and sellers, concerning tax account numbers, merchandise or service types, and submission procedures. Notably, this form emphasizes the necessity for sellers to either provide their Wisconsin tax account numbers or clarify their exemption status under specific rules, such as occasional sales or nonprofit organization exemptions. The form is designed to streamline the process of reporting taxable activities at temporary events, thereby aiding in the maintenance of fiscal responsibility and adherence to Wisconsin's tax statutes. It outlines a straightforward process for event operators to compile and submit seller information, offering options for electronic or paper submissions, while ensuring privacy and confidentiality. The detailed instructions aim to assist users in completing and submitting the form accurately, thus making it an invaluable resource for individuals and businesses engaging in temporary commerce within Wisconsin.

Instructions for Completing Operator and Seller Information

EVENT OPERATOR:

An “operator” is defined as a person or entity (such as an individual, association, partnership, corporation, or non- profit organization) that arranges, organizes, promotes, or sponsors an event. An operator may also be referred to as an organizer, exhibitor, or decorator. An operator may or may not be the owner of the property or premises where the event takes place. An operator may also be a seller at the event.

Note: A Wisconsin tax account number (formerly seller’s permit) is required if selling taxable merchandise or services. Admission fees are subject to sales tax in Wisconsin.

Step 1: Complete Parts A and B.

Step 2: Provide a copy of Wisconsin Temporary Event Operator and Seller Information (Form S-240) with Parts A and B completed to each seller participating in your event.

To obtain additional copies of Form S-240 go to the Department of Revenue’s website at revenue.wi.gov/ forms/sales/index.html. If you prefer, you may use the fill-in form available from the same website.

Step 3: Submission – Event Operator.

Submit compiled vendor information to the department as soon as possible but no later than 10 days from event closing using one of the following methods:

Electronic Reporting: If you have all the required sellers’ information, use the Excel spreadsheet provided at revenue.wi.gov/html/temevent.html. (Excel

viewer is available.) Fill in the information for all

sellers participating at the event and submit using the department’s secure file transmission application at

revenue.wi.gov/Pages/OnlineServices/wteptran.aspx or by U.S. Mail. Do not email event reports to maintain confidentiality of seller information.

Paper Reporting: Mail completed Forms S‑240 or a printed version of spreadsheet to:

Temporary Events Program

Wisconsin Department of Revenue

PO Box 8902

Madison WI 53708‑8902

Revenue Field Agents attend temporary events to verify registration of sellers. Sellers must have evidence of their Wisconsin tax account number at the event.

SELLER:

A “seller” is defined as a person or entity involved with selling merchandise or providing taxable services at a temporary event. A seller may also be referred to as a vendor, exhibitor, or booth owner.

Important: This form is not an application for a Wisconsin Tax Account Number. If you do not already

have a tax account number but are required to, you will need to apply for one directly with the Department of Revenue prior to the event. You can apply online or download an application, Application for Business Tax Registration (Form BTR-101) on the department’s website, revenue.wi.gov/forms/sales/index.html. Not all sellers are required to obtain a Wisconsin tax account number. Some of the reasons a seller may not need a tax account number are:

The seller only sells tax-exempt items, such as vegetables for home consumption.

The seller is only displaying at the event, no onsite orders are being taken, and taxable merchandise is not later shipped into Wisconsin.

The seller qualifies for the occasional sale exemption. (See Publication 228, Temporary Events.)

If you have questions regarding applying for a Wisconsin tax account number, contact any Department of Revenue office, visit our website, or call (608) 266-2776.

Step 1: Complete Part C (event operator should com- plete Parts A and B).

Line 1: Enter your individual, partnership, association, or

corporate name.

Line 2: Enter your business name, if different.

Line 3: Enter the address of the physical location of your

business. If different, also provide your mailing address.

Line 6: Enter your 15‑digit Wisconsin tax account number.

You can find this number on your Form ST-12.

This number is not your 6-digit seller’s permit number issued to you prior to December 31, 2002.

Lines 7 & 8: Enter the last four digits of your social security

number and/or federal employer identification number. This is required under sec. 73.03(38), Wis. Stats., if you do not provide a tax account number.

Step 2: Submit completed form to event operator on or before the first day of the event.
