Texas sales tax calculator
Texas charges 6.25% state sales and use tax on most taxable goods and services. Cities, counties, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts may add local tax, but the Comptroller caps combined local tax at 2%, so the highest combined rate is 8.25%. The calculator opens at 6.25%. If your receipt shows 8.25%, type that instead.
