Frequently Asked Questions
Is sales tax national?
In countries like the United States, sales tax is assessed at state, county, and local municipal levels, meaning tax rates differ significantly depending on the point of sale.
Keep track of sales tax rates when planning purchases. Because price tags in various regions are displayed exclusive of sales taxes, the final checkout value will include these added statutory percentages.
