Utah sales tax codes and rates
Utah's state sales tax rate is 4.85%; county and city rates come on top and are not included. A Nefin company that sells into Utah gets 2 sales codes, each named after the line of the TC-62S / TC-62M it fills, so the return's figures add up as you invoice. Purchases you owe use tax on go under UT-4, and Nefin works out the use tax due.
Utah codes from the TC-62S / TC-62M
Each code is “UT-” plus the line it fills on the TC-62S / TC-62M. Rates are the state rate only; add local rates in Settings, VAT rates, where you collect them.
