Frequently Asked Questions

As a retailer, how will I know what tax rates to charge?
Visit the Know Your Sales and Use Tax Rate page.
How do Tax Districts affect the tax rate?

The statewide tax rate is 7.25%. In most areas of California, local jurisdictions have added district taxes that increase the tax owed by a seller. Those district tax rates range from 0.10% to 1.00%. Some areas may have more than one district tax in effect. Sellers are required to report and pay the applicable district taxes for their taxable sales and purchases.

If you need help identifying the correct rate, ⁠you may look up the rate by address, contact our Customer Service Center at 1-800-400-7115 (TTY: 711), or call your local ⁠CDTFA office for assistance.
