Texas Form Ap 201 PDF Details

The Texas AP-201 form is a crucial document for business owners operating within the state, serving various purposes beyond its primary function as an application for sales and use tax permits. This comprehensive form also caters to businesses in specific sectors, including those dealing with off-road, heavy-duty diesel-powered equipment, telecommunications infrastructure fund equipment, and fireworks sales, further highlighting its significance in adherence to Texas tax compliance. It mandates detailed business information along with certification regarding prior or existing Texas taxpayer numbers, vendor or payee numbers, and even delves into the realm of 9-1-1 emergency communications, showcasing the depth of information required for assessment by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. The form not only facilitates the legal operation of businesses within Texas but also ensures that they contribute appropriately to the state's economy through taxes and fees. Designed for a wide range of business structures, including sole proprietorships, partnerships, corporations, and more, it encapsulates the diversity of Texas's business landscape. The stipulation for detailed partner and officer information underscores the transparency required in business operations, further reinforcing the state's efforts to maintain a fair and regulated commerce environment. Additionally, the form addresses specific scenarios like telecommunications service provision and sales exceeding certain thresholds, demonstrating its comprehensive nature in capturing business activities relevant to state tax obligations.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING

TEXAS SALES AND USE TAX PERMIT APPLICATION

SUSAN COMBS • TEXAS COMPTROLLER OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTS

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Texas Sales and Use Tax Application

Applicants must be at least 18 years of age. Parents/Legal Guardians may apply for a permit on behalf of a minor.

ENGAGED IN BUSINESS

You are engaged in business if you or your independent salespersons make sales, leases, or rentals, or take orders for tangible personal property, or deliver tangible personal property or perform taxable services; or have lease (personal) property, a warehouse or other location in Texas; or benefit from a location in Texas of authorized installations, servicing or repair facilities; or allow a franchisee or licensee to operate under your trade name if they are required to collect Texas tax.

WHO MUST SUBMIT THIS APPLICATION

You must obtain a sales tax permit if:

you are an individual, partnership, corporation, or organization engaged in business in Texas; AND

you are selling tangible personal property or providing taxable services in Texas to customers in Texas; AND/OR

you acquire tangible personal property or taxable services from out-of-state suppliers that do not hold a Texas permit; OR

you sell or resell telecommunications services, such as the electronic transmission of tax returns or other information, the provision of phone service for a charge to tenants or hotel guests, fax services, or paging services, or you are a telecommunications utility or a mobile service provider collecting and paying telecommunications receipts under Texas Tax Code, Chapter 151; OR

you are a telecommunications utility, a mobile service provider, or a business service user that provides local exchange access, equivalent local exchange access, wireless telecommunications connections, or intrastate long-distance service, and you are responsible for collecting emergency communications charges and/or surcharges under Texas Health and Safety Code, Chapter 771; OR

you collect tax on the retail sale of fireworks; (you are required to charge both the sales tax and the fireworks tax) OR

you collect tax on the sale of health spa memberships; OR

you sell, lease, or rent off-road, heavy duty diesel powered equipment (you are required to charge both the sales tax and the surcharge);

OR

you are an out-of-state winery direct shipping wine to consumers in Texas (you are required to obtain an Out-of-State Winery Direct Shipper permit from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission); OR

you sell cigarettes, cigars and/or tobacco products to consumers in Texas (you are also required to obtain a cigarette/tobacco retailer’s permit, AP-193. Refer to Cigarette/Tobacco Products under Texas Taxes); OR

you are an individual, partnership, corporation, or organization who makes sales, leases, or rentals of taxable items in Texas but does NOT have a place of business in Texas, AND for out-of-state contractors improving real property in Texas with tangible personal property purchased outside of Texas.

Wholesalers and retailers must apply for a sales tax permit. Internet and catalog sellers engaged in business in Texas must be permitted and are responsible for collecting and remitting the applicable state and local taxes on sales delivered to customers in Texas.

DIRECT SALES AND MULTI-LEVEL MARKETING COMPANIES: The state of Texas requires direct sales organizations to collect and remit state and local sales and use taxes on sales made by distributors in Texas. Since the Direct Sales Company is regarded as the retailer, permits are not issued to distributors and direct sales organizations are required to collect sales tax from the independent distributors rather than accept resale certificates.

TAXPAYER SEMINARS: The Texas Comptroller’s office offers taxpayer seminars throughout the state each year. New taxpayers are especially encouraged to attend these overviews of tax responsibilities for buyers, sellers, and service providers.

Schedule information is available online at http://window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/seminars.html or call us at 1-800-252-5555 for assistance in locating the next seminar near you.

Indicate if the address is on a street, court, or boulevard and if there is a directional indicator (ex: North, Northeast). Indicate vanity postal city if applicable (ex: Lakeway instead of Austin, Alamo Heights instead of San Antonio, etc. See http://www.usps.com for correct standardized address.)

It is easy to determine the NAICS code associated with your business. The Web address is http://www.census.gov/epcd/naics02/naicod02.htm. Enter one word in the keyword search field that generally describes your business. For example, if you’re in the restaurant business, enter “restaurant”. The search will return options ranging from “restaurant associations” to “restaurant, full service.” To the right of each listing is the associated six-digit NAICS code. In some cases, two codes are returned for the same business - one in the “1997” column and one in the “2002” column. Please select the 2002 code.

If the place of business is not located within city limits, check the indicated box.

Item 30. Provide the name of the county where this business is physically located.

you include installment payments which were received during a reporting period in “TOTAL SALES” on your sales tax return for that period (i.e.
