About this market
Market context
The tax profession in Washington State encompasses a broad range of specializations focused on state, local, and federal tax compliance, planning, and advisory services for individuals and businesses operating within or connected to the state.
Washington State does not have a personal or corporate income tax, leading to a strong emphasis on Sales & Use Tax, Business & Occupation (B&O) Tax, property taxes, and excise taxes. The Washington State Department of Revenue (DOR) is the primary agency overseeing state tax administration. Businesses must file B&O tax returns, often monthly or quarterly, based on gross receipts, with rates varying by business activity. Sales & Use Tax is generally applied at the state rate of 6.5%, plus local rates which can increase the combined rate significantly, often exceeding 9%.
