Sales tax in the United States varies significantly by state. California has the highest base state rate at 7.25 percent, while Colorado charges just 2.9 percent. Keep in mind that many cities and counties add their own local taxes on top of the state rate. For example, the combined rate in Los Angeles can exceed 10 percent, and New York City residents pay 8.875 percent in total. Always check your local jurisdiction for the most accurate combined rate.
