How sales tax works in Nevada

Nevada has a 6.85% state rate, and county taxes bring Las Vegas (Clark County) to 8.375%. There is no state income tax, so sales and gaming taxes carry more of the load. Groceries and prescription drugs are exempt.

Rates are the Tax Foundation’s figures as of January 1, 2026. Local rates change and vary by address; confirm the exact figure with the Nevada department of revenue or a rate lookup by ZIP code before relying on it.

Method & sources

State base rates come from each state’s department of revenue; average combined (state + local) rates are population-weighted figures published by the Tax Foundation, as of January 1, 2026. Local rates can change every quarter and can differ between neighbouring ZIP codes, so treat the combined rate as an estimate and confirm the exact rate for a delivery address with the state revenue department.

Sales tax is applied to the price after any store discount. Manufacturer coupons and rebates are handled differently from state to state.
