Frequently asked questions
What is the average US sales tax?
Combined state and local rates average around 7–8%, but range from 0% (states like Oregon and Montana) to over 9% in high-tax areas.
Is this the same as VAT?
The end consumer pays about the same, but sales tax is collected only at the final sale, while VAT is collected at each supply stage. Use the VAT calculator for non-US regions.
