2027 state tax changes overview
Effective January 1, 2027, changes to Colorado and California sales and use tax laws may affect your Kaseya invoices.
-
Colorado HB 26-1223: Software available for repeated sale or license, including downloaded and remotely accessed software, generally becomes subject to state sales and use tax. Exceptions remain for qualifying custom software and qualifying negotiated license agreements. Local tax treatment may vary.
-
California SB 122: Sales and use tax generally extends to electronically delivered or remotely accessed prewritten software, including Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), subject to applicable exclusions and exemptions. Qualifying custom software remains exempt.
Any applicable tax will appear separately on your invoice and does not represent an increase in Kaseya's underlying prices. The tax applied depends on the product, applicable customer location, exemptions, and state and local rules. Keep your billing and service-location information current.
If your purchase qualifies for a resale or other exemption, submit valid documentation through CERTifyTax before your next invoice is processed. Refer to Request tax exemption for US customers for details.
If your account information is accurate and no exemption applies, no action is required.
Exemptions are state-specific. If you have questions, chat with Kaseya Assist in KaseyaOne or email TaxHelp@Kaseya.com.
Colorado FAQ
The following questions address the Colorado sales tax changes introduced by House Bill (HB) 26-1223.
Colorado enacted HB 26-1223, which changes the state's sales and use tax treatment of computer software. Beginning January 1, 2027, software that is available for repeated sale or license will generally be treated as tangible personal property subject to Colorado state sales and use tax. Certain statutory exceptions remain available.
The software provisions in HB 26-1223 apply to sales, storage, use, and consumption occurring on or after January 1, 2027.
If Colorado sales tax begins appearing on your invoice, it may be because the tax treatment of the software you purchase changed as a result of HB 26-1223. The tax is collected to comply with applicable Colorado sales and use tax requirements. It is not an increase in the underlying price of the product.
Not necessarily. The applicable tax can depend on several factors, including the type of product purchased, the customer's location, available exemptions, and the applicable state and local taxing jurisdictions. Colorado's legislation does not automatically cause every Colorado local jurisdiction to impose the same tax treatment, so local tax treatment may vary.
Kaseya's tax determination process considers information including the product purchased, the customer's applicable location, and the taxing jurisdictions associated with that transaction. For this reason, customers should ensure that their billing and service-location information is accurate.
Yes. The legislation applies to qualifying transactions occurring on or after January 1, 2027. Taxes may apply to invoices, renewals, or other taxable transactions occurring after the effective date even when the underlying customer relationship began before January 1, 2027.
If your organization qualifies for a Colorado sales tax exemption, provide a valid and properly completed exemption certificate or other required documentation. Once Kaseya has reviewed and accepted the documentation, eligible transactions will be treated in accordance with the applicable exemption. For instructions on submitting documentation, see Request tax exemption for US customers.
Generally, no. Customers with valid exemption documentation already on file will not need to resubmit it solely because of HB 26-1223.
Submit any questions, along with your invoice number, account number, and exemption certificate (if applicable), to TaxHelp@Kaseya.com or through KaseyaOne's billing and payments assistant, Kaseya Assist.
California FAQ
The following questions address the California sales tax changes introduced by Senate Bill (SB) 122.
Beginning January 1, 2027, California SB 122 requires the collection of sales tax on software and SaaS products. This charge is mandated by law and is not the result of a price increase.
The tax will appear on invoices issued on or after January 1, 2027.
The applicable rate is based on your California billing address and includes both the statewide sales tax rate and any applicable local taxes.
Provide a valid resale certificate before your next invoice is processed. Once the certificate has been received and validated, sales tax will not be applied where an exemption is permitted. For instructions on submitting documentation, see Request tax exemption for US customers.
Submit your exemption certificate before your next invoice is processed. Upon verification, the exemption will be applied to your account. For instructions on submitting documentation, see Request tax exemption for US customers.
