Some city and county ordinances impose a local maximum tax that may apply to a single transaction. It is sometimes referred to as the local tax "cap" or "max tax." If the local tax paid on an invoice is greater than the local maximum tax, purchasers may apply to the Office of the State Tax Commissioner for a refund of the local sales tax collected beyond the maximum tax.
Local Maximum Tax applies to each individual purchase (invoice) unless otherwise specified. Only cities and counties who impose a maximum tax are listed.
