Our own parent company, SS Support Network LLC, happens to be registered in Vancouver, Washington, on the state's southern border, though that registration is administrative rather than a client-facing office. Washington has no personal or corporate income tax, but it replaces both with the business and occupation tax, a gross receipts tax with rates that vary by business classification and no deduction for costs. Combined state and local sales tax rates climb above 10% in parts of Seattle, so a technology or retail business here needs bookkeeping that tracks gross revenue and jurisdiction-level tax closely. Pacific Time (PT). Our US team works 8am to 8pm ET, which covers 5am to 5pm PT, so your entire Washington business day is covered live. ## Washington tax and compliance notes ### Business and occupation tax Washington has no personal or corporate income tax, but nearly every business pays the business and occupation tax, a gross receipts tax with rates that vary by classification such as retailing, wholesaling or services, and no deduction allowed for costs of doing business. ### Combined state and local sales tax Washington's state sales tax rate is 6.5%, and cities and transit districts add their own rate on top, pushing combined totals above 10% in parts of Seattle. E-commerce sellers shipping statewide need the destination rate tracked correctly. ### No employee income tax withholding Because Washington has no personal income tax, payroll does not need state income tax withholding, though employers still handle the state's paid family and medical leave and workers' compensation premiums. General notes, not advice. Filing is done by you, your CPA, accountant or registered agent; we prepare the workings. ## Industries we serve in Washington - **[SaaS and technology](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/saas/)** Seattle's concentration of technology companies needs subscription revenue and deferred revenue matched cleanly against billing platforms. - **[E-commerce](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/ecommerce/)** A major e-commerce and marketplace seller base around Seattle needs payout reconciliation across multiple channels and states. - **[Agencies](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/agencies/)** Seattle's growing marketing and creative agency scene needs project invoicing reconciled against client retainers. - **[Construction](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/construction/)** Ongoing growth in the Puget Sound region keeps contractors busy tracking permits and subcontractor draws by project. - **[Real estate agents](https://ledgerbpo.com/industries/real-estate-agents/)** Rising property values around Seattle and Tacoma keep agents and brokerages closing deals that need commission splits tracked correctly. ## Software Washington businesses use - [QuickBooks Online](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Xero](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/xero/) - [NetSuite](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/netsuite/) - [Gusto](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/gusto/) - [Amazon Seller Central](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/amazon-seller-central/) - [All 50 platforms](https://ledgerbpo.com/software/) ## Services for Washington 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 Washington state?
