Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate sales tax?
Multiply the sale price by the sales tax rate (as a decimal). For example, $100 × 8.5% = $8.50 in tax, making your total $108.50. Our calculator does this automatically for every US state.
Which states have no sales tax?
Five states have no state sales tax: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon. However, Alaska does allow local sales taxes, so check local rates if selling there.
What is the highest sales tax state?
When combining state and average local rates, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Arkansas typically have the highest combined sales tax rates in the US, often above 9%.
Do I need to collect sales tax on all my sales?
It depends on whether you have "nexus" in a state — meaning a sufficient business presence or sales volume that triggers a collection obligation. Most states use economic nexus thresholds ($100K in sales or 200 transactions). Sails can help you track your nexus across all states.
Are these rates accurate for my city or ZIP code?
These are state-level combined rates (state rate + average local rate). Actual local taxes vary by city, county, and special district. For precise ZIP-code-level rates, consider upgrading to Sails to get exact rates for every order.
