sales tax

Sales tax is a tax imposed by state and local governments on the sale of goods and services and is usually calculated as a percentage of the sale price. Sales tax is sometimes referred to as retail sales tax.

New Hampshire is one of the few states in the United States that does not impose a general state sales tax on goods and services. This means that consumers purchasing goods and services within the state are not required to pay a state sales tax at the point of sale. However, it's important to note that while there is no general sales tax, New Hampshire does impose certain specific taxes on meals, room rentals, and motor vehicle rentals. Additionally, businesses operating in New Hampshire are still subject to other types of taxes, such as business profits tax and business enterprise tax. Local municipalities in New Hampshire do not have the authority to impose local sales taxes, so the absence of a general sales tax applies statewide.
