How do I record or show Withholding Tax on Sale Invoice? (Example: My company charge service $ 100 from Customer and customer withhold $15 for tax agency)

Hey there, Tey.

 

I'd be glad to provide you the step-by-step process in recording the customer's withholding tax via QuickBooks Online.

 

To record this, you'll need to create a withholding tax item and set up an expense account to track the charges.

 

Step 1: Set up a withholding tax expense account:

 

  1. From the Gear menu, select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Select New.
  3. From Account Type drop-down, select Other Expense.
  4. From Detail Type drop-down, select Other Miscellaneous Expense.
  5. Name the account "Withholding Tax Expense," then Save.

Step 2: Set up a withholding tax expense item:

 

  1. From the Gear menu, select Products and Services.
  2. Select New, then choose Service.
  3. Name the item "Withholding Tax."
  4. From Income account drop-down, select the withholding tax expense account that you’ve just created.
  5. Save and close.

You can go through this article for the other steps (proceed to Step 3): How do I record tax withheld by my customer?

Hi I tried following the instructions but I cant find  the "other miscellaneous expense" in the detail type drop down, should I just select "other expenses" in the options? Thank You.Capture.PNG

Yes, you can use the Other Expenses account. However, it's best to seek some help from your account so they can better guide you on setting it up.
