The Town of Parker began collecting its own sales taxes in 2003. Tax filers are no longer allowed to report Town of Parker sales tax on the State of Colorado forms.  Instead, all filers are required to file Town of Parker sales tax on the Town of Parker sales tax returns.

There were no changes to the 3 percent Town tax rate or to to the tax base. Items that were exempt before July 1, 2003 continue to be exempt and items that were taxable as of July 1, 2003 continue to be taxable. 

Any changes to the State code or State regulations after July 1, 2003 generally do not apply to the Town of Parker. All businesses that collect, or are required to collect, the Town of Parker sales tax must have a Town of Parker Business and Tax License.
