US Sales Tax Calculator by State — California, New York, Texas & Tax-Free States
In the United States, shelf and online prices are listed before sales tax, so the final total jumps at checkout. Rates vary widely across all 50 states and Washington D.C. — combining state sales tax with county and city local taxes. Select any US state (such as California, New York, Texas, Florida or tax-free Oregon and Delaware) and enter an item price to calculate the exact sales tax and out-the-door total.
How to use it
- Select the US state where you are shopping or shipping your order.
- Enter the pre-tax item price in USD (and adjust local city/county tax rates if needed).
- Read the state and local sales tax breakdown and the final post-tax total.
