在美国购物消费，在很多地方结账时所要支付的价格比货物标签上的标价要高，这是因为美国大多数州都要收取Sales Taxes（中文：销售税/营业税）。一起来看看你所在的地区购物消费要加多少税吧！
美国销售税
美国各州除了有固定的州销售税（State Sales Tax）以外，有些县市可能还要收取额外的地区销售税（Local Sales Tax），而我们平时购物结账时所支付的税费通常是两者总和，综合销售税（Combined Sales Tax）。所以即使在同一个州，不同地方的消费税也可能有所差异。
另外，有很多州的州销售税税率可能并不高，但是地方销售税税率极高，所以综合销售税率也飙升。比如说加州，虽然加州的州销售税率高达7.25%，是全美榜首，但综合了地方销售税之后，反而只排在第7位。

美国有5个免税州，购物不用加税，分别是：
- 俄勒冈州 Oregon
- 特拉华州 Delaware
- 蒙大拿州 Montana
- 新罕布夏州 New Hampshire
- 阿拉斯加州 Alaska （部分地区有地区销售税）
而有很多州每年也设有固定的免税假日（Sales Tax Holiday），在免税日期间购买合资格的产品就不用加税，是省钱好时机哦！
小总结
美国各州的消费税结构也并不相同，各地可能会指定部分类别的商品免销售税，比如在德州购买生肉蔬菜等等都不用加税，在纽约购买不超过$110的衣服鞋子也可以免税。
