Address Validation: The first steap to accurate sales tax calculation, and confidence.

Sales tax compliance begins with

 accurate street address verification

>> Unlike many other compliance products, AvaTax includes AutoAddress+: a full street address verification, validation, correction, and lookup feature: you don't have to purchase it as a separate module.

>> That's a critical distinction. To calculate tax properly you first need to know the correct taxing jurisdiction. By using a Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS)-certified ZIP+4 USPS database to correct, standardize, and verify the address, and then overlaying this with a GIS mapping system, we return the highest level of accuracy in address verification. 

Why is this important?  - With tax jurisdictions constantly changing, and ever-changing tax jurisdiction assignment requirements mandated by federal and state laws, keeping tax assignments current is a significant problem.

• Processing addresses through a CASS database, then GIS mapping ensures the most accurate and current municipal boundaries
• Identifies special tax jurisdictions
• Supports changes in federal and state legislation
• Standardized, correct and validates addresses

Additionally, by utilizing the best source of address data in the country you receive the benefit of streamlined data entry, reduced shipping rates, and clean lists for marketing, shipping, sales orders, accounts receivable, and purchasing applications.

Service activation takes you less than five minutes, and no further updates or maintenance is required.  Activate AutoAddress+ once, and never worry about a bad address again.  See how it works.

Key Features:

>> Validates, verifies, and corrects full street address to zip+4 plus GIS
>> Identifies ZIP codes within multiple counties and/or cities, and outside city limit conditions
>> Pinpoints the location and relates it to a specific set of tax authorities
>> Queries the user by presenting options, allowing the user to select the correct tax
     jurisdiction alternative; or the system can choose the most likely option
>> Captures additional information, such as county name and code.
>> Validates five-digit ZIP codes at data entry or on existing files.
>> Can be used on-line to keep input accurate at the time of transaction.
>> Requires no monthly updates; real-time updates are transparent to the user
>> Verifies and corrects any US or Canadian street address
>> Ensures deliverability by using bar coded addresses
>> Standardized to USPS specifications
>> ZIP+4 and Carrier route codes

AutoAddress+ comes as part of the core technology of AvaTax Connect, AvaTax SDK and
AvaRates Now to ensure accuracy in jurisdiction and rate research as the foundation of sales tax compliance.  You can also purchase it separately for on-demand address validation functionality alone, to integrate with any CRM, ERP or custom application.
