Florida's statewide sales tax rate is 6%, so the state part of the tax on a $100 sale is $6.00. Local taxes come on top: with a 1% local rate the combined rate is 7% and the tax on $100 is $7.00. Combined rates in Florida run from 6% to about 8%, set by the county discretionary sales surtax. Enter the price and your local rate, or tick the box to take the tax out of a total.

Florida sales tax rates
Most counties add a discretionary sales surtax, commonly 0.5% to 1.5%. The surtax only applies to the first $5,000 of a single taxable item, so on a $9,000 item the county part is charged on $5,000 while the 6% state tax applies to the full price.
Sales tax is charged at the rate for the place where the buyer takes delivery, so a business that ships within Florida charges the rate at the customer's address.
How to calculate it
Sales tax = price × combined rate. At 7%, a $1,000 sale carries $70.00 of tax and the customer pays $1,070.00 (the local surtax is charged on the first $5,000.00 of a single item only, so on a $9,000 item it applies to $5,000).
To take the tax out of a tax-included total, divide by one plus the rate: $107.00 ÷ 1.07 = $100.00. Subtracting 7% of the total instead gives the wrong answer, because the rate applies to the pre-tax price.
