# How to register for a sales tax permit in Alabama

| Sidr Tax creates the sales tax account for you. However, this state requires that you have your own login and we access your account as a third-party.

### Create a [My Alabama Taxes (MAT)](https://myalabamataxes.alabama.gov/) Login

After Sidr Tax applies for a sales tax permit on your behalf, you will receive your sales tax permit in the mail. It can take 1-2 weeks for you to receive it.

You can then create a login at [My Alabama Taxes (MAT)](https://myalabamataxes.alabama.gov/) to access your sales tax account.
