Broke?

Been using this for years, but last two weeks it just spins when I press location so I deleted the app and try to open a new one and it’s still not working.

Tax is theft.

Explain to me why the state thinks it’s entitled to my money. It had nothing todo with helping obtain it. Forces me to comply with reporting and tracking how much I am supposed pay with out paying me as an employee.
And always increases every year.

Location detection is OFF!!

At least half a mile from actual location!

The Current Version Is Not Accurate

Every time I check a location the information is incorrect by several cents. I purchased a vehicle from Toyota of Tacoma. The app says .103 but the rate is really .108. Very disappointing.

FAQ

What does the WA Sales Tax Rate Lookup app do?

This app allows users to quickly find current Washington state sales tax rates from their mobile device. It also enables users to calculate the total charge including sales tax for a given taxable amount and save this information for bookkeeping purposes.

How can I find a sales tax rate using the app?

You can find a sales tax rate by using your device's GPS to locate your current position or by searching for a specific address. The app will then display the applicable sales tax rate for that location.

Is the WA Sales Tax Rate Lookup app free to use?

Yes, the application is available for free. There are no costs associated with downloading or using its core functionalities for finding and calculating sales tax rates.

What types of sales tax rates does this app provide?

The app provides general sales tax rates for Washington state. However, it explicitly states that it does not currently provide lodging or motor vehicle sales and rentals rates. For those specific rates, users are directed to visit dor.wa.gov.
