Bookkeeping for businesses in Miami
Miami's economy runs on international trade, tourism and real estate, with PortMiami handling one of the world's busiest cruise passenger volumes and a major container trade with Latin America. The city's condo and residential real estate market stays in constant motion, supported by a dense network of agents, property managers and short-term rental operators. A growing fintech and startup scene has taken root downtown and in Brickell, drawing companies looking for a foothold in Latin American markets. Hospitality and restaurant businesses serve a steady flow of visitors year-round. A Miami bookkeeper regularly works across multi-currency vendor relationships, short-term rental reconciliation and seasonal tourism cash flow.

Miami tax and compliance notes
No personal income tax
Florida does not levy a personal income tax, so a Miami owner's payroll withholding covers federal tax only, with no state wage tax to track.
Sales tax plus county surtax
Florida's base sales tax is 6%, and Miami-Dade County adds its own discretionary surtax, so invoicing software needs the combined local rate set correctly for every sale.
Corporate income tax
Florida C corporations still owe the state's corporate income tax on net income, even though owners and employees pay no state income tax personally.
General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Miami?
LedgerBPO does not keep a physical office in Miami. We are the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, registered in Vancouver, Washington, with a second office in Pakistan that extends coverage further into the day. A named dedicated accountant handles your books remotely, inside whatever software your Miami business already runs, so there is no local address to visit.
Can you help with Florida's sales tax and county surtax for my Miami business?
We track the combined 6% state sales tax and Miami-Dade County's discretionary surtax as they apply to your sales, reconciled inside your point-of-sale and bookkeeping software. Your CPA or tax preparer uses those numbers to file the actual sales tax return with the state. This is preparation support, not filing or tax advice.
Do you work with real estate agents and short-term rental owners in Miami?
Yes, real estate agents, property managers and short-term rental owners are a significant part of our Miami client base, given the city's active condo and rental market. We reconcile commissions, owner statements and HOA-related costs inside the software you already use, whether that is QuickBooks Online or a property-management platform. Your dedicated accountant learns your specific portfolio rather than applying a generic template.
