Automate complex communication services tax to reduce risk and improve audit performance.
Communications tax complexity exploded with the introduction of non-traditional communication services such as streaming and IoT. Phone service providers are no longer the only companies with comm tax obligations. With constant changes in rates and rules, emerging technologies and shifts in taxing jurisdictions, tax automation is a must.
Vertex offers robust, proven tax determination solutions to integrate with your communication billing system for reduced risk. Let us help you grow with confidence and improve compliance processes.
Robust tax content supports the calculation of taxes, surcharges and fees for U.S. and Canada providers of communication services, including wireless, wireline, voice over IP, cable, satellite, internet, video and audio streaming, and more. This supports the tax needs of traditional telecom service providers, as well as non-telecom companies who now provide communication services.
Vertex leverages the latest geospatial technology to pinpoint tax jurisdiction assignment for improved tax accuracy. Even locations with no traditional street address, such as cell towers, can be supported using longitude and latitude coordinates.
With Vertex, you can manage communications tax on the same platform as the other tax types that your business manages – including sales, use and value added tax.
Set up custom taxability rates and rules, franchise fees and bundled services to meet your specific business needs. Easily update configurations as your business grows.
