South Carolina has a 6% statewide sales tax rate, but also has 122 local tax jurisdictions (including cities, towns, counties, and special districts) that collect an average local sales tax of 1.694% on top of the state tax. This means that, depending on your location within South Carolina, the total tax you pay can be significantly higher than the 6% state sales tax.
For example, here is how much you would pay inclusive of sales tax on a $200.00 purchase in the cities with the highest and lowest sales taxes in South Carolina:
for a $200.00 purchase
