Sales tax in the United States
The United States does not have a federal value added tax. Retail purchases are commonly subject to state and local sales tax, and the percentage can vary by state, county, city and special district.
Use this calculator as a fast arithmetic tool: enter the rate that applies to your location or invoice, then add tax to a pre-tax price or remove tax from a tax-included total.
Use your state and local rate
Sales tax rates and exemptions are not uniform across the country. Some goods may be taxed differently or not taxed at all. Confirm the exact rate with your official state or local tax agency before issuing invoices or making compliance decisions.
