Written Versus Verbal Rulings From the State

To protect your business from an audit, consider asking for a written ruling, as opposed to a verbal ruling when questioning your state's Department of Revenue.

According to an article, "A formal request for tax guidance is generally referred to as a ruling request or private ruling letter. For sales and use tax purposes, a ruling request will generally relate to the taxability of a product, individual or pending business purchase and the circumstances that surround the transaction."
