Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average US sales tax rate?
US state sales tax rates range from 0% (Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, Oregon) to 7.25% (California). Most states fall between 4% and 7%. Note that local county and city taxes are often added on top of the state rate, pushing the combined rate higher in many areas.
How do I remove sales tax from a total?
Switch to "Remove Tax" mode, enter the tax-inclusive total, and select your state or province. The calculator divides the total by (1 + rate/100) to extract the pre-tax amount and shows the exact tax portion.
What is the difference between GST, HST, and PST in Canada?
GST (Goods and Services Tax) is the federal 5% tax. HST (Harmonised Sales Tax) combines GST with the provincial tax in participating provinces (Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, PEI) into a single rate. PST (Provincial Sales Tax) is a separate provincial tax collected alongside GST in BC, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Quebec collects its own QST instead of PST.
Does this calculator include local/city taxes?
No - this calculator uses state-level rates only. Many cities and counties add additional local sales tax (e.g., New York City adds 4.5% on top of the 4% state rate). Always check your specific location for the combined rate.
