What makes up a sales tax rate in Missouri

  • The state's share: 4.225%. Levied on every taxable sale in Missouri, wherever it happens.
  • Local shares: nothing to ~6.75% on top. Counties, cities and special districts each add their own, and a seller collects them together. 988 cities in Missouri have their own pages with a figure below.
  • Your exact address decides. A ZIP code is a postal route and was never drawn to follow tax boundaries, so two addresses sharing one can owe different totals. The calculator narrows it down from your ZIP code.

How combined rates are spread across Missouri

Why most Missouri figures are estimates

Of 1,158 ZIP codes in Missouri, 0 resolve to a single verified rate for every address inside them. The rest carry an estimate with its range, and the calculator will ask for more than a ZIP code where it needs to.

  • 432 Some local taxes in this state are not yet mapped, so the real rate may be higher. 437 of the 1,425 Missouri cities we hold are not yet placed on a ZIP code, so an estimate can miss a city's share. It errs low, not high.
  • 310 This ZIP code crosses a tax boundary, so the rate depends on the street address.
  • 207 A local district in this state is not yet mapped, so this may not be the whole rate.

A ZIP code is a mail route, not a tax boundary. Where one crosses a city or district line, the rate depends on the street address, and no lookup by ZIP code alone can settle it. Enter your ZIP code in the calculator for the closest figure we hold.
