Coffee and retail brands also trace their roots to the city, and a dense startup and venture capital scene has grown around the larger tech employers. An e-commerce seller here reconciles marketplace payouts against advertising and fulfillment fees, while an aerospace supplier tracks long-cycle contract billing. Between global tech companies, manufacturing and a wave of independent online sellers, Seattle's bookkeeping needs stretch from marketplace reconciliation to contract accounting. Pacific Time (PT). Our team's 8am to 8pm ET schedule covers 5am to 5pm PT, so Seattle calls are typically booked after lunch. ## Seattle tax and compliance notes ### Washington business and occupation tax Washington has no state income tax, but businesses pay the business and occupation tax on gross receipts, with the rate depending on the type of business activity. Bookkeeping needs to classify revenue correctly since different activities carry different B&O rates. ### Washington sales and use tax Washington's state sales tax rate is 6.5 percent, and Seattle's local rate brings the combined total above 10 percent on most taxable goods. E-commerce sellers need to track destination-based rates for shipments across the state. ### No state income tax Washington charges no personal or corporate income tax, which removes state income tax withholding from payroll entirely. Employers still handle federal withholding, Social Security, Medicare and the state's paid family and medical leave program. General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings. ## Industries we serve in Seattle - **[SaaS](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/saas/)** Seattle's cluster of major cloud and software employers supports a startup scene that needs subscription revenue matched to billing platforms. - **[Manufacturing](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/manufacturing/)** The region's aerospace manufacturing base needs long-cycle contract billing and inventory costs tracked across production runs. - **[Ecommerce](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/ecommerce/)** A large base of online sellers built around the city's e-commerce roots needs marketplace payouts reconciled against advertising and fulfillment fees. - **[Agencies](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/agencies/)** A growing creative and tech consulting scene needs client retainers reconciled against project hours and contractor costs. - **[Construction](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/construction/)** Continued growth across the metro keeps builders reconciling subcontractor draws against permitting and material costs. ## Software Seattle businesses use - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [Shopify](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/shopify/) - [Stripe](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/stripe/) - [NetSuite](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/netsuite/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Services for Seattle 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 Seattle? LedgerBPO does not have a Seattle office. We operate as the accounting and billing division of SS Support Network LLC, registered in Vancouver, Washington, with a second office in Pakistan, and your dedicated accountant works remotely, during Pacific business hours, inside whatever accounting software your business already runs. ### Do you understand Washington's business and occupation tax?

Your accountant or tax preparer reviews the classification and files the actual B&O return with the state. We do not sign or submit filings ourselves. ### Can you reconcile marketplace payouts for a Seattle e-commerce seller? Yes, we match marketplace deposits against orders, refunds, advertising spend and fulfillment fees inside your accounting software.
