How is use tax paid?

Much like the local sales tax, businesses collect the use tax when items are purchased and pay the tax through the Missouri Department of Revenue. Just like with the local sales tax, the Department of Revenue shares the city portion of that revenue with Brentwood. Businesses generally file use tax returns along with their sales taxes.
