Ohio sales tax rates
Each county adds a permissive tax, and some add a transit tax, on top of the 5.75% state rate. Every county charges something, so the real rate is never 5.75% on its own.
Sales tax is charged at the rate for the place where the buyer takes delivery, so a business that ships within Ohio charges the rate at the customer's address.
How to calculate it
Sales tax = price × combined rate. At 7.25%, a $1,000 sale carries $72.50 of tax and the customer pays $1,072.50.
To take the tax out of a tax-included total, divide by one plus the rate: $107.25 ÷ 1.0725 = $100.00. Subtracting 7.25% of the total instead gives the wrong answer, because the rate applies to the pre-tax price.
What is not taxed in Ohio
Food for home consumption and prescription drugs are exempt; restaurant meals are taxable.
Rates and exemptions change, so confirm the rate for a specific address with the Ohio Department of Taxation before you file. This calculator does the arithmetic; it is not tax advice.
