Newnan websites for Coweta County trades
Newnan bases its occupational tax on gross receipts and gives you until April 15 to renew without penalty. After that, penalties start at 11.5%.
Gross receipts and an April 15 cutoff
Newnan is in Coweta County, southwest of Atlanta. The city mails renewal packets in the first week of January. Renewals are due January 1, but businesses can renew through April 15 with no penalty or interest. Fees are based on prior-year gross receipts, so a copy of your tax return or P&L goes with the renewal. After April 15, penalties start at 11.5%, and none are waived.
New applications take up to a week to process. Certificates won't be issued until property taxes for the business, owner and location are paid. A certificate can transfer with a sale, but the prior owner's taxes must be paid first.
