Ohio businesses with a taxable year that begins on Dec. 1 that want to file their 2019 municipal net profit tax return with the Ohio Department of Taxation must register by midnight, Feb. 1.

Click here to opt in now with the Ohio Department of Taxation. More details about this new filing and payment option are spelled out in ODT’s Taxpayer Information Guide.

Also by Feb. 1, businesses that intend to file centrally must notify each municipal corporation in which the taxpayer conducted business during the previous taxable year, on Form MNP-MN. The tax commissioner has prescribed two versions of the form: one for tax preparers and the other for taxpayers.
