Transaction privilege tax (TPT) is a tax imposed on the privilege of conducting business in the state of Arizona. The tax is levied on the vendor, not the purchaser. Although the burden of the tax may be passed on to the purchaser, the vendor is ultimately liable to Arizona for the tax. Therefore, only the vendor may request a refund of TPT paid (Please see Transaction Privilege Tax Procedures).
To request a refund, vendors can follow the instructions below. Please provide accurate information in the refund request workbook. This will eliminate delays in obtaining this information once the claim has been submitted.
