@neoderek2005 Whether or not you are using Square for Payroll doesn’t impact your sales taxes at all. I’m assuming you sell goods or services that are subject to sales tax in Florida. In this case, Square does calculate the sales tax due on all sales, assuming you set that up in your account. But Square does NOT file returns or pay your sales taxes. You are responsible to register a sales tax account with Florida, and to file monthly (or whatever they require) returns and pay the amount due for that period. Square does provide you with the reports to help you fill out the state’s forms, though.
Since you mentioned Payroll, I’ll add that Square does calculate and withhold the appropriate federal, state and usually local taxes, and that they DO file and remit those for you in most cases. They will provide you with copies of returns filed which will be in your dashboard Payroll section. A full list of what Square files and pays for you for your Payroll can be found here.
Let me know if you need anything further.

And, @DinaLRosenberg, if you sell to multiple states, apps like DAVO are time-savers and life-savers. I can’t imagine trying to deal with any more than one or two sales tax jurisdictions! Thanks for mentioning that. Since @neoderek2005 mentioned Florida, I just assumed they weren’t selling out of state. That might not have been the best assumption, so options are good to have!
