Jay,

CA sales tax does vary by county, The Board of Equalization's site
explaining it all is here:

http://www.boe.ca.gov/pam71.htm

I have clients who researched this directly and reported back that 
they only
have to charge tax based on their origin point.  However the current 
BOE
data seems to contradict this at first glance.  Looks like they want 
tax
charged based on buyer origin. I have no clue what other states do 
about
this, but it sounds like quite a nasty little app to have to write.

Am I wrong or do you only have to charge sales tax if the buyer is in 
the
same state as the seller (where ''in the same state'' is defined as 
*all*
physical premises the seller may have in the all states).

Hi Scott -

I think it could vary from store to store - because in some states the
sales tax varies from county to county.  I know in CA the rate varies
depending on where the business is located.  (Or, at least, I think it
works like this.  I could be mistaken).

Umm . . . why does each store need its own sales tax rate for each
state? Does the sales tax vary from store to store?
