Optional. Add your county or city rate if known.
State sales tax is set at the state level and applied at the point of sale — rates range from 0% to 7.25% depending on the state. Five states have no state sales tax at all: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon. Many states exempt groceries or apply a reduced rate to lower the cost of essential food. Local taxes set by counties and cities are applied on top of the state rate and can add anywhere from 0% to over 5% — check with your local authority for the exact combined rate in your area.
