SALES TAX
| • For domestic (USA) sales, we are required by law to collect state sales tax for certain states. Reference A sales tax is the money paid to a government for the sales of certain goods and services. • The sales tax rate in the United State ranges from 0% to 15.5% depending on the states and the type of goods and services. The following is a list of the sales tax rates for different states in the U.S. In the United State, the sales tax might be deductible when filing a tax return ( Form 1040, and itemize deductions on Schedule A ). • You have the option of claiming either state and local income taxes or state and local sales taxes ( but not both ). If you saved your receipts throughout the year, you can add up the total amount of sales taxes you actually paid and claim that amount. If you didn't save all your receipts, you can still choose to claim state and local sales taxes. You could fill out the worksheet and use the optional general sales tax tables in the Instructions for Schedule A ( Form 1040 ). Or you can use the Sales Tax Deduction Calculator provided by IRS. The sales tax calculator above helps to figure out anyone from the other two numbers out of before-tax price, tax rate, and final price. • If you have a valid sales tax resale-number and/or tax exempt number, you may not have to pay state sales taxes. Please fax your sales Tax Exemption form to Uptowntools 1-212-302-1774. |
