Idaho is a beautiful state in many ways including state sales and use taxes.
The sales and use tax rate is fairly reasonable at 6% and the tax is applicable to the sale of tangible personal property and some enumerated services. While there are some local sales and use taxes, they are primarily limited to special services (i.e. lodging) or resort communities. Only the state 6% sales and use tax is reported on the state sales and use tax return. Local taxes are self-administered by the jurisdictions.
Like the state itself, there really isn’t anything complicated about the Idaho sales and use tax laws for general retailers and service providers.
