GeoTAX
Pinpoints the exact tax jurisdiction and applicable tax codes for any address.
The GeoTAX service uses geolocation to identify the tax jurisdiction in which a specific address is located and which current tax codes apply. It assigns state, county, township, municipal, school, and other pertinent tax type information to an address using the most precise geographic data available. This Service is currently available for addresses or coordinates in the United States only.
Tax exposure is an issue that companies deal with regularly. Since the majority of all taxes that companies pay are based upon local tax jurisdictions, it has become important for them to ensure that they are applying the correct tax rates for all of their customer billing. This creates the problem of accurately determining the tax jurisdiction for a customer’s address.
