Marijuana Tax
A marijuana sales tax is a tax collected on the sale of recreational and medicinal marijuana products. This tax is typically a percentage of the retail price and is charged at the point of sale. Payments are due on or before 30 days after the end of the Quarter Due. For more information please review the Borough Marijuana Sales Tax Code.
Marijuana Tax is collected quarterly. Each retail Marijuana Facility is required to complete a self reported Marijuana Tax Quarterly Return. Payments are due 30 days from the last day of the reporting quarter.
A Certificate of Registration Application is required before operations may commence.
