Broward County Sales Tax Calculator 2026 – how it works
Broward County sales and use tax is calculated using a combined flat rate made up of two components. The Florida state sales and use tax rate is 6.00%, and Broward County imposes a discretionary sales surtax of 1.00%. When a transaction is subject to Florida sales or use tax and is sourced to Broward County, both components apply together as a single combined rate.
Examples
A simplified estimate is calculated by applying the combined Broward County rate to the taxable amount. The estimate reflects Florida state sales and use tax at 6.00% plus the Broward County discretionary sales surtax at 1.00%. Because the rate structure is flat, the tax amount increases proportionally with the taxable amount and does not change based on brackets or tiers.
Limitations and important notes
This calculator provides a simplified estimate based solely on the stated Florida state and Broward County rates. It does not determine whether a transaction is taxable, how sourcing rules apply, or whether any exemptions or special rules affect the final amount due. Actual tax liability may differ based on transaction-specific facts and official Florida Department of Revenue guidance.
