What a bookkeeper tracks in Georgia

General information, not tax advice. Which of these reach your business depends on its entity type, what it sells, whether it has employees and the schedule each agency assigns. Your bookkeeper keeps the records; you, or whoever your engagement letter names, file. Checked on the linked official pages on September 26, 2026.

• Sales and use tax.Most Georgia dealers file a sales tax return every month, and you can ask the Department of Revenue in writing to change your filing frequency. Returns and payment are due by the 20th of the month after the period. A return is still required when no tax is due or no sales were made.Georgia Department of Revenue, checked Sep 26, 2026
• Withholding tax.Your Georgia withholding schedule follows how much you withhold. Monthly filers withhold more than $200 a month and pay by the 15th of the next month, quarterly filers withhold $200 a month or less, and both file Form G-7 by the last day of the month after each quarter. At $800 a year or less, you can request annual filing, due January 31.Georgia Department of Revenue, checked Sep 26, 2026
