Corporate Tax:
Businesses operating in California are subject to a minimum franchise tax of $800 annually, with certain exceptions for new corporations in their first year.
Non-Tax Programs:
The FTB also manages collections for delinquent vehicle registration fees and court-ordered debts on behalf of other state agencies.
