Which services are taxable in Alabama and how does this affect service-based businesses?
In Alabama, most services are not taxable; however, specific services are subject to sales tax, including:
Repair Services: Appliance, car, and equipment repairs involving tangible personal property.
Maintenance Services: Ongoing maintenance that affects tangible goods.
Certain Accommodation Services: Services related to lodging or accommodations.
For service-based businesses offering these taxable services, it means they must collect and remit sales tax on applicable transactions, increasing their compliance requirements and potentially affecting pricing strategies.
