Frequently asked questions
What is the New York sales tax rate?
4% state plus local county and city taxes, typically bringing the combined rate to between 7% and 8.875%. New York City is 8.875%, which includes a Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District surcharge.
Is clothing taxable in New York?
Clothing and footwear under $110 per item are exempt from the state portion, and from local tax in some jurisdictions but not others. It is one of the more intricate exemptions in US sales tax.
What is the nexus threshold?
More than $500,000 in sales into New York and more than 100 transactions in the preceding four quarters — both tests, not either. That makes it narrower than almost every other state.
Is shipping taxable?
Yes, when the goods are taxable. Delivery charges are part of the taxable receipt in New York regardless of how they are stated.
