About WA Sales Tax Rate Lookup

WA State Sales Tax Rate Lookup
Washington State Department of Revenue 


Use this app to find the sales and use tax rate* and code for any location in Washington. You can look up rates by your current location (using GPS), or entering an address. It’s an ideal tool if you make deliveries to your customers in multiple locations.

*Sales tax rates for lodging and motor vehicle sales and rentals are different than the general rate and are not included in this app.

Features
This app offers features that make it easier to collect and keep track of sales tax
on-the-go:
Calculate total amount due
• Calculate the total amount to collect from your customer—sales price plus sales tax—when you enter the amount of the sale.
Save your locations
• Keep track of the locations you’ve looked up by saving them to a list.
• The list includes: date, address, tax rate, location code, confirmation code, effective dates of the rate at that location, and—if you used the calculator—taxable amount, tax due, and total.
• Allows you to add a title to each entry for easier tracking
Share your location
• Email or text a location entry to yourself or someone else.
• The entry includes: date, address, tax rate, location code, confirmation code, effective dates of the rate at that location, and—if you used the calculator—taxable amount, tax due, and total.
Map
• View a location on a map—either your current location (using GPS), or a location you’ve searched for.

How to look up a tax rate
Using your current location
• From the Locate view, tap the Current Location button; the system will find your present location and display the tax rate information*.
Using an address

• You can tap the Cancel button if you make a mistake.
• Use the Back button once to return to the last screen, tap back a second time to take you out of the App.

Official Washington State tax app gives you the sales tax rate quickly by GPS location, by address, or lat/long. Provides a confirmation number to protect you if a tax official later disputes the rate you set. Essential for folks who sell & maintain cash registers &POS systems in our state.

I always have a customer standing there and every time I try to look up tax using GPS it says Rate not available. But if I type in the address it works. Same as if you were on the internet why have the app?

As a mobile mechanic, I need to know exactly what the tax rate and tax code if the address I'm working are so I can file my taxes quickly and accurately. As I perform my jobs, I can input the exact information I need on a per RO basis. Then, next year when tax time comes I can be done in just an hour or two.

Good work guys! When you can convince your users to fully embrace the ui guidelines it'll get higher ratings.

W70%
by W####:

When you put out an update, I like to see what's new. E.g., minor bug fixes, enhanced ui, etc. Without this, I tend to wonder what big brother might be doing.

This app is great for small business owners. I like how easily it finds the address that I put in however with find my current location is not available. Also on my particular phone which is an lg optimus the calculator is not complete. the bottom 3 buttons are missing and I can't scroll up which makes it hard to put in anything that has a cents in the price. Also I cannot scroll up on the tax information page when after entering an address. Love the concept just some flaws that need to be fixed
