Tax Information
THIRD-PARTY AUDIT AND COLLECTION SERVICES
The City of Auburn is a self-administered municipality with regard to sales/use, rental/leasing, and lodging taxes. Occasionally, the City utilizes the services of third-party companies to conduct audits of taxpayers' records. With the passage of Act 2016-406 by the Alabama Legislature, the Alabama Local Tax Institute of Standards and Training (ALTIST) is required, as of January 1, 2017 to establish a toll free number, or hotline, for taxpayers to submit complaints related to the auditing or collection activities of a private auditing or collecting firm who acts on behalf of a self-administering county or municipality. Taxpayers who would like to register complaints should call 1-855-638-7092. Complaints will be transcribed quarterly and provided to the auditing or collecting firm receiving the complaint. Reports of these complaints will also be made available to the self-administered county or municipality.
FORMS OF PAYMENT:
