Delaware levies no statewide general sales tax — one of only five states where that is true. For medical & dental practices that removes the single largest source of quiet liability, and shifts the work onto payroll, entity filings, and the obligations noted below.
Employer registration runs through the Delaware Department of Labor, and the entity is registered with the Delaware Division of Corporations. No sales tax, but a gross receipts tax on the seller that many businesses miss because it is not a sales tax. Annual franchise tax also applies to corporations.
