Retail Sales Tax
Generally, retail sales is defined as a sale to a consumer, or any
person, for any purpose other than for resale. The tax rate in Virginia
is 5%, (4% state and 1% local). The retail merchant shows the tax as a
separate item and collects this tax from the customer by adding it to
the sales price. Those engaged in business as a retail seller, must
register with the Virginia Department of Taxation.
