Franchise Tax is an often-overlooked tax strategy area that states utilize to collect more taxes. Similar to sales tax, states closely monitor multi-state operations for enforcement of nexus, apportionment, throwback rules and the overall sourcing of income, based on constitutional and interstate commerce issues. In addition, states constantly pass new legislation that shifts the focus of how and to whom franchise taxes apply, which can make franchise taxing difficult for businesses to navigate.
