How does Intuit calculate sales tax charges?
The sales tax charged for an individual transaction is based on the Ship-To address, which is defined as the location where the product is ultimately to be shipped/sent.* The applicable sales tax charged is based on the ZIP code within the specific state where the product has been sent. The amount charged will include all state, county, and local taxes as required by law. In most cases, these taxes will apply to the shipping and handling fee as well as the product price. * Intuit does not collect sales tax on products shipped to Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon, as these five states do not currently impose a sales tax.
