How Indiana sales tax works

Indiana applies a 7.00% state sales tax to most retail purchases. Unlike many states, Indiana does not allow counties or cities to add local sales taxes — the state rate is the full rate everywhere in the state.

Groceries are exempt from Indiana's state sales tax. Prepared food (restaurants, deli items, hot food bars) is generally still taxable at the full combined rate.

For exact rates by ZIP code or address, use the Indiana Department of Revenue's online lookup. Because there are no local additions, the rate is consistent statewide. Run any purchase amount through the calculator above to see the breakdown.
