Florida Sales Tax Calculator 2026
Work out the sales tax and total on any purchase in Florida for the 2026 tax year.
How sales tax works in Florida
Florida (FL) applies a statewide base sales-tax rate of 6%. Most cities and counties add a local sales tax on top, so the combined rate you actually pay is usually higher than the state base — enter your local rate in the calculator above for an exact figure. Categories such as groceries, prescription drugs, and clothing are treated differently from state to state; this estimate assumes a fully taxable purchase.
What to know about Florida sales tax
- Florida has no state income tax on wages, which is a major draw for high earners and retirees.
- The state relies heavily on a 6% sales tax plus county surtaxes, and on property and tourism taxes, to raise revenue.
- Florida’s constitution makes introducing an income tax especially difficult, so the no-tax status is durable.
