The Department of Taxation was an agency of the Territory of Alaska, and the Department of Revenue was an agency of the State of Alaska. When Alaska became a state, the Department of Revenue absorbed many of the functions of the seven territorial agencies.

The Alaska State Archives has published both the Record Group Inventory and the unpublished Series Inventories and Container List that cover the Department of Revenue records, including territorial records. The state archives also has records created by the following territorial agencies having revenue or taxation functions:

RG 103 Territorial Department of Taxation, 1949'52.

RG 105 Office of the Territorial Treasurer, 1913'57 (Series Inventories and Container Lists).

RG 106 Territorial Department of Audit, Series 102, Fox Brand Program, 1923'43 (Series Inventory and Container Lists).

RG 321 Territorial Banking Board, 1914'58 (unpublished Series Inventories and Container Lists).
