Use the Sales Tax Calculator in three steps
Enter the subtotal
Use the price before sales tax.
Enter the combined rate
Add the percentage that applies to the transaction.
Review the total
See the original amount, tax, and final price.
A combined rate may have several parts
A purchase can be subject to national, state, provincial, county, or city taxes. Enter their applicable combined percentage rather than one component alone.
An estimate is not a tax determination
Product exemptions, shipping, discounts, and location rules can affect the taxable base. Use the rate and subtotal shown by the seller for a final transaction.
