Nevada sales tax codes and rates
Nevada's state sales tax rate is 6.85%; county and city rates come on top and are not included. A Nefin company that sells into Nevada gets 2 sales codes, each named after the line of the REV-F013 it fills, so the return's figures add up as you invoice. Purchases you owe use tax on go under NV-F, and Nefin works out the use tax due.
