The Lake County.

The ND Tax Angle

A rock-bottom income tax — and a 5% sales tax with local add-ons.

North Dakota levies one of the nation's lowest income taxes — a top rate of just 2.5% — plus a 5% state sales tax that Ramsey County cities top with local option taxes (roughly 6-8.5% combined). We keep your income, sales, and local-option records clean.

Why Tides

Why Ramsey County Business
Owners Choose Tides.

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no shortage of bookkeepers in Ramsey County — but most are local firms with hourly billing, slow turnarounds, and outdated processes.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

Reports You Can Actually Use

We don't just hand you a spreadsheet. Clean, readable reports with plain-language summaries — so you can make real business decisions from your financials.

Your CPA Will Love You

Tax season gets dramatically easier when your books are maintained properly year-round. Most clients report lower CPA bills after working with Tides.

No Contracts. Cancel Anytime.

We earn your business every month. No lock-in agreements, no early termination fees. If we're not delivering, you can leave. That keeps us sharp.
