New Sales Tax Rates for Seattle Tacoma Area

So please be aware that as of April 1, 2009 most of if not all of Washington State increased the sales tax amount. Our sales tax here in Kent on retail goods went to 9.5%

The State does not care that your cash register or POS system is not collecting enough sales tax as they compute the sales tax owed to the state on sales, not how much your POS or Cash Register reports that it collected.

Many users can change the tax rate themselves however if you are not one of those you can contact us for help. There is a fee for the service unless you have a full maintenance agreement with us. We can help with Sharp Cash Registers, SAM4s Cash Registers, Digital Dining POS , Keystroke POS, Microsoft POS, Microsoft RMS, some Casio Cash Registers and some TEC cash registers.

To find your rate check with the Revenue Dept. of the State of Washington
