B. Get Your Michigan Tax ID Number and Or Other State Required Documentation

1. Form 518 – Michigan Tax Registration Form
To determine your company’s state tax obligations, you must fill out Form 518 and file it with the Michigan Department of Treasury.
You can download the tax registration booklet and form at www.michigan.gov/documents/518_3620_7.pdf .
