About this file

The document is a 2024 Amusement Tax form issued by the City of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, specifically designed for businesses to report and pay taxes on various types of amusement-related revenues. The form covers six primary tax categories, including admission fees, free or reduced-rate admissions, leases of boxes and seats, season tickets, entertainment at bars and nightclubs, and performing arts events. The tax rate is uniformly set at 5% (0.04762), with specific provisions for non-profit charitable performing arts organizations that may qualify for different tax treatment.

The form requires businesses to calculate and report taxable revenue across these categories, with due dates typically on the 15th day of the month following the billing period for permanent amusement types, and immediate payment required for temporary or itinerant amusements. The City of Pittsburgh imposes penalties and interest for unpaid taxes, with a $30 fee assessed for returned checks. Businesses are instructed to make payments to the City Treasurer, with the understanding that collected amusement tax revenues are held in trust for the city and would not be considered part of a bankruptcy estate. The form includes provisions for amended returns, refunds, and updates to business information, with assistance available by calling 412-255-2525.

This acknowledges that we are collecting the City of Pittsburgh Amusement tax as agents for the City of Pittsburgh and that all Amusement tax revenues collected are the property of the City of Pittsburgh from the time that they are collected from patrons. It is understood that the collected tax revenue shall remain in a segregated account held in trust for the City of Pittsburgh, until such time as the funds are properly delivered to the City Treasurer. In the event of bankruptcy by the producer, whether voluntary or involuntary, such funds will not become part of the bankruptcy estate; rather they will be turned over to their rightful owner, the City of Pittsburgh.
