In United States, there is no single national Sales tax rate applied automatically. Enter the rate that applies to your sale, or turn the tax line off if it does not apply.
Invoices and sales tax in the United States
The United States has no national VAT. Sales tax is set by each state and often by county and city, so the rate depends on where the sale is taxed. Several states require the sales tax to be shown as a separate line on the invoice.
For most freelance and B2B service invoices, sales tax does not apply. Turn the tax line off if it does not apply to your sale, or enter the combined rate for your location.
