Florida Sales Tax Calculator

This Florida Sales Tax Calculator estimates total purchase cost by combining the statewide 6.0% sales tax with local county surtaxes. Florida’s system allows counties to add discretionary surtaxes, which means the total rate varies by location and can change over time. This tool keeps the math transparent: you enter the pre-tax price and local surtax rate, and it breaks out state vs. local tax along with the final price. Certain goods and transactions may be exempt or capped, and local surtaxes often have special rules (e.g., on the first portion of a sale). Because of these nuances, treat the result as educational—use official county and state resources for exact rates and rules when making business or tax decisions. The calculator is useful for budgeting, pricing, and understanding how layered rates affect your total cost.
