The New Jersey Division of Taxation has begun a multi-phased modernization of its tax-filing system. In early 2025, Sales and Use Tax filers and tax preparers will experience a convenient way to interact with New Jersey's tax-filing system via a new taxpayer portal.
Quarterly Sales and Use Tax Returns are due before 11:59 p.m. of the 20th day of the month after the end of the filing period. If the due date falls on a weekend or legal holiday, the return and payment are due on the following business day.
You do not have to wait until the due date to file. You can file your return early for the current quarter and schedule a future payment on or before the return due date.
If you do wait until the filing due date, you may experience high volume related errors with the online filing system. These issues are usually intermittent, but may impact your ability to file timely. Alternately, you may use the EZ Telefile System by calling - 1-877-829-2866 (609-341-4800), and select option 1.
Plan ahead to ensure timely filing and payment.
