Sales Tax in Jasper, Indiana

Published On: June 24, 2018|Categories: Blog|

Neither Jasper, Indiana nor Dubois County ass sales tax. So, the sales tax in Jasper, Indiana is just the statewide Indiana sales tax. The sales tax rate in Indiana is seven percent. In 2008, the state raised the sales tax to seven percent to offset tax revenue that the state lost with statewide property tax reform. Sales tax in Indiana is used for tourism projects and local economic development primarily. For example Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indiana Convention Center were both paid for with sales tax revenues.

Before April 1, 2008, the state sales tax was six percent. It was raised to seven percent with the passage of House Enrolled Act 1001.

Any businesses that have retail sales (as well as businesses with employees, businesses that rent or lease tangible property or have other taxable services) have to register with the Indiana Department of Revenue. To register or learn more about how to report sales tax and pay sales tax as a business, just check out the Indiana Secretary of State business services online portal.
