What can change the tax you pay in ZIP code 20130
- Your exact address. Clarke County, Fauquier County, Loudoun County and Northern Virginia regional cover only part of this area, so an address inside them is taxed differently from one just outside. A ZIP code is a postal delivery route and was never drawn to follow tax boundaries.
- Special districts. Northern Virginia regional levies on top of the state, county and city. Districts like these are the usual reason two addresses a street apart pay different totals.
- What you are buying. Categories are not taxed alike. The calculator switches between general merchandise, prepared food and lodging, which are the categories we hold rates for here.
Why nearby places pay a different rate
Elsewhere in VA the combined rate is commonly 6% (351 ZIP codes), 6.3% (87 ZIP codes), 7% (14 ZIP codes) or 7.7% (1 ZIP code). The difference is which county, city and special districts an address falls inside, not how far apart they are.
How sales tax is collected
The seller generally collects the tax from the buyer at the point of sale and passes it to the authorities that levied it. In most states it is added at the till rather than included in the advertised price. Read how sales tax works, including sourcing rules, online purchases and who is required to collect.
