When you register for a sales tax permit in Alabama, the form will ask you to identify which county you do business in. This is because Alabama requires that you collect and remit sales tax at both the local and state levels. If you do not have a physical operation in Alabama you can put your home state and county and you will not be required to collect/remit sales tax at the county level. If you do not know what county your Alabama business is located in, you can use this free tool online.
