Beginning January 1, 2021, all sales tax for the City of Cañon City will be collected by the State of Colorado.
When businesses file their January sales tax return for the State of Colorado and submit it in February, they will need to include City of Cañon City’s sales tax on the State of Colorado portal under the City of Cañon City column on the return. Please refer to the State’s website for further details: tax.colorado.gov.
All returns for periods prior to January 2021 should still be remitted and paid to the City of Cañon City.
In addition, beginning January 2021, a City of Cañon City sales tax license will no longer be required, but a valid State sales tax license must be maintained. During 2021, the City of Cañon City will be working on establishing a business license that will be required for businesses with a physical presence in Cañon City.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Christian Nyberg at (719) 276-5252 or chnyberg@canoncity.org.
