Understanding Sales Tax

Sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by the government on the sale of goods and services. In the United States, sales tax rates vary by state, county, and city, creating a complex system where the total rate can differ significantly even between neighboring locations.

Our calculator simplifies this process by letting you input the combined rate that applies to your purchase. Remember that some items may be tax-exempt depending on your location and the type of product. Always check with local authorities for the most accurate tax information.
