Auto repair shops and dealerships operate statewide, and logistics companies move parts and finished vehicles across the Midwest daily. Michigan charges a flat personal income tax, and unlike most states, several cities including Detroit, Grand Rapids and Lansing add their own city income tax on top. Sales tax applies at a flat 6% statewide with no local add-ons, but most services are not taxed at all, only tangible goods, which changes how a service business tracks taxable revenue compared to a retailer. Eastern Time (ET) across most of Michigan. Our US team works 8am to 8pm ET, covering the entire business day live. ## Michigan tax and compliance notes ### Flat state income tax with city add-ons Michigan charges a flat 4.25% personal income tax rate, and several cities including Detroit, Grand Rapids and Lansing levy their own additional city income tax on residents and, in some cases, nonresidents who work there. Payroll needs to track both layers correctly. ### Sales tax on goods, not most services Michigan's 6% sales tax applies statewide with no local add-ons, but it generally taxes tangible goods rather than services, so a repair shop or consultancy needs to separate taxable parts from nontaxable labor on every invoice. ### Corporate income tax Michigan levies a flat 6% corporate income tax on C-corporations, while most pass-through entities like LLCs and S-corps are not subject to it at the entity level. Bookkeeping still needs clean net income figures for whichever structure applies. General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings. ## Industries we serve in Michigan - **[Manufacturing](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/manufacturing/)** Michigan's automotive supplier network needs inventory and cost of goods sold tracked accurately across long production contracts. - **[Auto repair and dealerships](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/auto/)** A dense base of auto repair shops and dealerships across Michigan needs parts inventory separated from labor for tax purposes. - **[Trucking and logistics](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/trucking/)** Parts and finished vehicles moving across the Midwest keep Michigan trucking companies needing accurate load and fuel reconciliation. - **[Construction](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/construction/)** Rebuilding and infrastructure work around Detroit and Grand Rapids keeps contractors busy tracking permits and draws by project. - **[Staffing agencies](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/staffing/)** Michigan's manufacturing staffing agencies placing workers into plants need fast, accurate weekly payroll and client invoicing. ## Software Michigan businesses use - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [Gusto](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/gusto/) - [Bill.com](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/bill-com/) - [QuickBooks Desktop](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-desktop/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Services for Michigan businesses - [Bookkeeping](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/bookkeeping/) - [Invoicing and billing](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/invoicing-and-billing/) - [Accounts receivable](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/accounts-receivable/) - [Accounts payable](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/accounts-payable/) - [Bank reconciliation](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/bank-reconciliation/) - [Month end close](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/month-end-close/) - [All 84 services](https://ledgerbpo.com/services/) ## Frequently asked questions ### Do you have an office in Michigan?
