District is unusual.
There's no federal sales tax, but if you're selling internationally, there can be border fees of various kinds. State sales taxes are nearly ubiquitous. Large cities or counties might have a sales-tax addition for local funding.
Special-purpose sales taxes exist, infrequently: hotels are probably most common.
- gumby 3y agoSure, there are also excise taxes levied on different kinds of products (fuel and alcohol being the most common), fees (like disposal deposits on drink containers, tires, and the like) and just in general differential tax rates (certain kinds of foods are not taxed, taxed at a different rate or even, I’ve seen proposed, taxed by the size of container).
- dclowd9901 3y agoAren't import taxes essentially federal sales taxes? Granted, they're applied long before the product sits in a consumer's cart.
