How Pennsylvania Sales Tax Works

In Pennsylvania, sales tax is charged at the point of sale on most retail purchases of tangible goods, and on some services. The state portion is 6.00%; cities and counties add their own local rates on top, which average 0.34%. The combined effective rate consumers actually pay is 6.34%.
