The formulas
- Sales tax = sale x (6.5% + local rate)
- Nexus when counted sales are more than $100,000 in the current or preceding calendar year
How it works
Figures current as of November 2026.
The state rate is 6.5 percent. The tool multiplies the sale amount by the statewide base rate plus the local rate you enter (city and county sales tax for the delivery address) and shows the state and local parts separately. The local rate depends on where the goods are delivered.
A seller with no physical presence in Kansas must register and collect once it has more than $100,000 of cumulative gross receipts from sales to Kansas customers in the current or preceding calendar year.
A seller with a physical presence in Kansas, such as staff, an office or inventory, must collect regardless of the threshold. The tool does not decide whether a product is taxable or exempt; enter the taxable price.
