FAQ

How do I find my sales tax rate?

Sales tax rates vary by location. In the US, rates differ by state, county, and sometimes city. You can find your current rate by checking your state's department of revenue website or looking at a recent receipt from a local store.

Can I use this for VAT or GST?

Yes. While this calculator is labeled for sales tax, you can use it for any percentage-based tax calculation including VAT (Value Added Tax) and GST (Goods and Services Tax). Simply enter the pre-tax price and the tax percentage.

Does this calculator include compound tax?

This calculator computes simple sales tax: tax amount = price × tax rate. For compound or layered tax calculations (e.g., provincial plus federal tax), calculate each layer separately or enter the combined effective rate.

Is my data private?

Absolutely. All calculations happen entirely in your browser. No data is sent to any server, stored, or shared. Your privacy is 100% guaranteed.
