How to work out Utah sales tax

Add the state rate and your local rate to get the combined rate. Then:

  • Tax on a price: price × combined rate. At 6.35%, $100 carries $6.35, so you pay $106.35.
  • Tax inside a total: total ÷ (1 + combined rate) gives the price before tax. The difference is the tax.

Some goods are taxed at a different rate or not at all, such as groceries in many states. Check the state's page for the item you're pricing.

Selling in Utah? A business that makes taxable sales usually needs a sales tax permit from the state before its first sale. See Utah's seller's permit and resale certificate rules and its remote seller threshold. Our Utah business guide covers registering a company there.
