Annual filers: New April 15 due date

OLYMPIA, Wash. – Dec. 30, 2019 – Small businesses that report their state excise taxes annually now have until April 15 to file their tax returns. The 2019 Legislature passed Second Substitute House Bill 1059, which changed the due date from Jan. 31 of each year to April 15.

Businesses that want to file early can do so at dor.wa.gov/MyDOR.

If a business has had no activity for 2019, they must still file a tax return and report “no business.” There are several options for filing a no business return, including Express File on dor.wa.gov and by phone at 360-705-6705.

Assistance is available:

• Talk with a tax specialist at 360-705-6705.
• Use Revenue’s Live Chat service.
• Email tax questions.
• Visit one of Revenue’s offices located across the state.

Tax specialists are available by phone or live chat between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays. Automated phone services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
