Vendors who make retail sales within the city of Aurora during a temporary retail event should access the Aurora Tax Portal to remit Aurora sales taxes collected during the event. This link is not intended to be used by a business that regularly operates in Aurora and is required to have a business license.

Temporary retail event means an event where retail sales as defined in section 130-31 are made by one or more temporary retail businesses, which event occurs for a period not to exceed seven consecutive days. A common use of this link would be a vendor operating at a craft fair.

No temporary vendor may attend more than five events within any 12 month period. Businesses attending more than five events need to apply for a city of Aurora business license.

Let us know if the special event you are attending is not listed so we can add it to our system. The information can be provided by email to Tax@auroragov.org or call us at 303.739.7800.
