Houston, TX Sales Tax (2026)
Verified Jul 30, 2026
Combined sales tax 8.25% (6.25% TX state + 1.0% city + 1.0% METRO transit) — the Texas statutory maximum. A few addresses inside Houston city limits fall outside the METRO transit district and are 7.25%, so check an exact address with the Comptroller's Sales Tax Rate Locator.
