Taxes in California are among the highest in the United States and are imposed by the state and by local governments. From a tax terminology perspective, sales taxes are a proportional tax; though because lower income earners may pay a greater percentage of their earnings to sales taxes than higher income earners, a sales tax is also described as a regressive tax.

  • Taxes in California are among the highest in the United States and are imposed by the state and by local governments. From a tax terminology perspective, sales taxes are a proportional tax; though because lower income earners may pay a greater percentage of their earnings to sales taxes than higher income earners, a sales tax is also described as a regressive tax. The sales tax is imposed on retailers (not consumers) for the privilege of selling tangible personal property at retail. However, retailers are allowed (but not obligated) to obtain reimbursement for their tax liability from the consumer at the time of sale. Whether a sales tax reimbursement amount is actually added is a matter of contract between the retailer and the consumer. The use tax is imposed on the storage, use, or other consumption in California of tangible personal property purchased from a retailer. Any person storing, using, or otherwise consuming in California tangible personal property purchased from a retailer is generally liable for the use tax. While the sales tax is imposed on retailers, the use tax is imposed on purchasers. A retailer engaged in business in California (which includes many businesses located outside of California engaging in E-commerce) is generally required to collect the use tax from the purchaser at the time of sale and provide the purchaser a receipt.
