Electronic Annual Estimated Tax Payment

Annual estimated tax payment of transaction privilege, telecommunications services excise, and county excise taxes are required if:

  • Combined tax liability for transaction privilege, telecommunications services excise, and county excise taxes in the preceding calendar year was $4,100,000 or more, or
  • If you reasonably anticipate a liability for such taxes of $4,100,000 or more in the current year.

Deadline
The statutory due date for the annual estimated tax payment is June 20.

  • When filed electronically, the annual estimated tax payment must be received by the department no later than Friday, June 28. However, in order for the department to receive an electronic payment by Friday, June 28, that payment must be electronically submitted no later than 5:00 p.m. MST (Mountain Standard Time) on Thursday, June 27. It is highly recommended to make a payment three business days before the end of the month to ensure your payment is accepted and processed into ADOR systems.

How do I calculate my payment?
There are two methods available to calculate your June estimated payment:

  • One half of the actual tax liability from the month of May, or
  • The actual tax liability from June 1 through June 15.

Electronic payments

  • Taxpayers required to pay electronically may be subject to penalties for payments made by check or cash. To file and pay online, a business must be registered on AZTaxes.gov and use ACH debit, e-check, or credit card as a payment method to comply with electronic funds transfer (EFT) payment requirements.
