Can I e-sign the voucher?

How do I correct a submitted voucher?

Submit an amended return or adjustment through the Indiana DOR portal per state instructions. Include a corrected voucher and documentation explaining the changes and retain both submissions with confirmation numbers.

What happens with late payments?

Late payments incur state penalties and interest following Indiana DOR rules. File and pay promptly to limit additional charges and consider requesting penalty abatement if eligible and justified.

Which supporting documents should I keep?

Retain sales ledgers, exemption and resale certificates, invoices, and bank payment confirmations for the retention period. These documents substantiate reported taxable sales and support audits or refund claims.

Can an agent sign on my behalf?

What the Indiana Sales Tax Voucher Is

The Indiana Sales Tax Voucher is a standardized payment and remittance form used to deliver retail sales and use tax to the Indiana Department of Revenue for a specified reporting period.

Vouchers are used with paper checks or electronic payments and help the Department apply funds to the correct period and account. Maintain copies for reconciliation and audit support.
