Sales & use tax

Colorado sales tax, county by county.

Colorado starts with a 2.9% state sales tax, then your county, city, and any special district each add their own. The rate you actually pay is the combined total for that exact spot.

The combined rate = state 2.9% + county + city + any special district. The rate you pay is the combined rate: state 2.9% plus the county, city, and any special-district rate. City rates and special districts (like RTD in the Denver-Boulder metro) vary by exact location, so use the Colorado Department of Revenue rate lookup for a specific city or address.

Looking for a city's rate?

A city's sales tax — and whether special districts like RTD apply — depends on the exact location, and many Colorado cities are "home rule," setting and collecting their own tax. Rather than list a base city rate that might miss a voter-approved piece, we send you to the source that always has the full, current combined number:
