Add a sales tax rate using the app (Android only)

by Intuit Updated 1 week ago

We refer to all taxes as tax. You'll see the taxes that apply for your locale (such as VAT, GST, state, provincial, and so on).

If you haven't yet created a tax rate for your business, do that first, and then you can view and manage your tax rates.

  1. From the Menu ☰, tap Settings ⚙, then tap Tax Rates.
    Note: If this is your first time, you'll see an introductory screen: tap Add tax rate to get started.
  2. Tap the plus icon +, then tap Single tax rate or Combined tax rate.
  3. Enter information about the tax rate:
    • For a Single tax rate, add a Sales tax name, Agency, and Rate, and then tap Done.
    • For a Combined tax rate, add a Sales tax name, Component, Agency, and Rate, and then tap Done.
      Note: Combined sales tax rates can include new and existing rates.
      • Tap Combined tax rate if your tax agency makes you break down this tax into multiple parts, such as city, county, and state taxes.
