1)  Click for online

Video On How To Make An Update To Your TPT License (example: mailing address, DBA name, add a new location, add new officers or update who has access to your account on AZTaxes.gov)

What can you use a Business Account Update for?

Report your business changes:

• change your mailing address on corporate, withholding and transaction privilege and use tax licenses;
• add, edit and/or close locations for TPT licenses;
• cancel or close an existing TPT license or single location on a TPT license;
• close an account for withholding or TPT licenses;
• make changes to “Doing Business As” (DBA) name or the business mailing address;
• and/or add a new reporting jurisdiction, new business code or business or rental location

When locations are added or there are changes in the business name (or DBA) the license number does not change; however, a new license is printed showing the updated information.

License fees are required whenever these changes are made and the business receives a new print of the license.

Other business changes that should be reported to the Department of Revenue include changes in the mailing address or location of audit records, addition or removal of owner/officer information, requests to cancel your license when the business plans to cease operations, and requests to change filing frequency.

These changes do not require a license fee.

Note: Changes in ownership require a new license because licenses are not transferable.

Use the Arizona Joint Tax Application to apply for a new license if your business changes from a sole proprietorship to a partnership or corporation, or undergoes a similar change in organization.

Also, if the business is a partnership and partners are added or removed, a new license is required.
