Department of Revenue launches new website

DES MOINES — The Iowa Department of Revenue has a new website which merges tax.iowa.gov and abd.iowa.gov into the new revenue.iowa.gov.

As the state’s revenue agency, the Department supports businesses across all sectors and has the operational infrastructure to do so efficiently and effectively.

As part of the State’s government alignment initiative, the governor directed the Iowa Department of Revenue to align with the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division and the Iowa Lottery Authority to become one agency.

Since alignment, the goal of the digital transformation statewide initiative is to provide a consistent experience as Iowans navigate through their personal and business interactions with the State of Iowa government websites.

The new site includes improved navigation by consolidating the two website processes and topics into a more streamlined direction, the IRS says.

A simple homepage offers quick links to Department’s most-used applications and webpage, coming events and recent news from the Department.

Guidance is more clearly presented in a single location by tax types.

A Frequently Asked Questions section gives answers to common questions.

With the launch of the new website and new web address, users who have bookmarked previous pages related to Revenue or Alcoholic Beverages may need to update frequently accessed pages, the IRS says.
