Yes, a 1099-NEC.  Barter is the exchange of goods or services without the payment of money. When barter occurs in the course of a trade or business, the following rules apply.

  • The fair market value of goods and services received must be included in business income in the year of receipt and is subject to self-employment tax.
  • Associated expenses are deductible as business expenses.
  • Bartering income is subject to 1099 reporting requirements. 
  • Barter exchanges report trades on Form 1099-B,Proceeds From Broker and Barter Exchange Transactions.  Topic No. 420 Bartering Income | Internal Revenue Service
