📍 About Lafayette County

The Ole Miss County.

Lafayette County is home to the University of Mississippi — a college-town economy anchored by Ole Miss, a nationally known literary and cultural scene, and Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi, led by Oxford.

We serve businesses across the county — Oxford, and the smaller communities in between.

Payroll EntriesTax Sync
The MS Tax Angle

A high state sales tax — and an income tax on the way out.

Mississippi charges a high 7% state sales tax — one of the highest state rates in the country — but unlike most states it adds almost no local sales tax, so Lafayette County businesses generally charge a flat 7% (groceries at a reduced 5%). Layer on a flat income tax, now 4% and legislated under the Build Up Mississippi Act to fall toward full elimination. We keep your sales tax and income-tax picture clean.

Why Tides

Why Lafayette County Business
Owners Choose Tides.

There's no shortage of bookkeepers in Lafayette County — but most are local firms with hourly billing, slow turnarounds, and outdated processes. Tides was built differently.

✓

Built Remote — Optimized for It

We're not a local firm that went remote reluctantly. We were built remote-first from day one, which means faster delivery, better systems, and no overhead passed to you.

Flat Monthly Pricing — No Surprises

One flat rate based on your transaction volume. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no "extra work" fees. You know exactly what you're paying every month.
